This church built in the 11th century and consecrated in 1117 contains a magnificent set of Romanesque frescoes.

Built in the 11th century and consecrated in 1117, it contains a magnificent collection of Romanesque frescos. The cloister is topped by a gallery added in the 14th century. The treasure of the Bishops presents a set of silverware whose masterpiece is the bust of Saint-Lizier in silver. A stopover on the Piedmont Way, Saint Lizier is a living memory of the great era of the pilgrimage to Compostela. The octagonal bell tower dates from the 14th century. The interior nave has remarkable Romanesque frescoes.

Belle église à visiter à Saint-Lizier.
Beau cloître très bien conservé.
La petite ville de Saint Lizier vaut vraiment le détour et une visite du centre s'impose. De plus vous profiterez d'une belle vue dégagée.
Ne pas oublier de visité la pharmacie de l'époque, très typique.
Pensez à réserver votre visite avant.

Une très belle grande église, située (bien évidemment) au centre du vieux Saint-Lizier.
À voir, avec son cloître.

Un petit village sympa pour s’arrêter une heure ou deux.
A deux pas de Saint-Girons (où il ne faut pas rater le marché qui est très réputé).
Le cloître de l'ancienne cathédrale est en bon état et assez joli.
De plus vous pourrez emprunter de petites ruelles vraiment atypiques en parcourant la ville.

A superb city. Do not hesitate to visit the small cobbled streets. Views of the Pyrenees exceptional. A reception has a rather friendly Tourist Office. The village is however attractions (shops, artists and craftsmen, not very present)
Fantastic! The city of Saint-Lizier is worth a visit, do not fail to visit pharmacy. From the palace of the bishops, a fantastic view of the Pyrenees. When the church, romanesque paintings exceptional and restored in a remarkable treatment. Our guide was fascinating.
