ST. MAURITIUS CATHEDRAL
Saint-Maurice Cathedral in the Angevin Gothic style, with an imposing high altar with a baroque canopy and magnificent organs
Overlooking, from the top of its 73 meters, a hundred or so steps that lead to the Maine and the Doutre, this cathedral perfectly illustrates the Gothic style of Anjou. Its neo-Gothic pulpit, created by a talented abbot, its imposing high altar with a baroque baldachin and its magnificent organs supported by giant atlatls form a rich ensemble, faithful to the ostentation of the period. The polychrome portal, entirely painted, dates from the 12th century. After several years of restoration, the original colours are shining again.
