Museum where you can discover the paintings hidden behind some clever technical manipulations

The museum is now more modern and playful, with well-designed scenographic arrangements. In the cathedral, the oldest paintings date back to the 12th century and are of exceptional richness on the vault and walls. They include 12 sibyls, the Tree of Jesse on the south wall and scenes from the life of Saint James on the north wall. The guided tour reveals the paintings hidden beneath some clever technical manipulations.

Magnifique Palais des Évêques tant à l'extérieur qu'à l'intérieur.
La vue sur la vallée est magnifique.
La visite du site est très intéressante.
Lors de la visite de ce Palais, vous découvrirez la chapelle Sixtine Ariégeoise. Une véritable beauté!!!
A recommander sans hésiter!

A superb museum to discover and discover. It is housed in a huge palace with an exceptional view of the Pyrenees, but also contains a sumptuous sixtine cathedral, with monumental paintings until its vaults. It is beautiful and very cheap.

Un très beau palais à visiter si vous séjourner à proximité de Saint-Lizier. Si vous êtes plus dans le sud côté tarascon ou bien Andorre je vous déconseille de faire toute la route uniquement pour voir le palais. Mais si vous êtes fan de l'époque gallo-romaine alors allez-y sans problèmes.
Il a été très bien rénové et les peintures dans la cathédrale valent le détour! Si le temps est clément et si si vous êtes au début du printemps alors vous aurez un très beau panorama sur les montagnes enneigés.
