Très belle collégiale qui vaut le déplacement, superbes tapisseries et de nombreuses sculptures à voir. J'ai apprécié le fait de pouvoir allumer les niches dans lesquelles se trouvent les statues et autres objets.

Montpezat-de-Quercy, un poble fortificat del Quercy Blanc, és típic de la zona amb la seva plaça central amb galeries cobertes i les seves cases d'entramat. Aquest lloc encantador té un passat gloriós, amb la il·lustre família Des Prés que ha deixat el poble amb algunes característiques notables. De fet, al segle XIV, el cardenal Pierre des Prés va erigir la preciosa col·legiata de Sant Martí d'estil gòtic del sud d'Europa. Dos segles més tard, per iniciativa de Jean IV des Prés, que aleshores era bisbe de Montauban, es van crear especialment per al presbiteri de la col·legiata tapissos que representaven la vida de Sant Martí. Aquesta meravellosa sèrie de cortinats flamencs ha estat ben conservada i és molt admirada pels amants dels tapissos antics. A sobre d'aquesta joia hi ha un altre tresor, format per estàtues religioses i cofres de noces.
