ST. PETER'S CATHEDRAL
Go there and contact
The Saint-Pierre cathedral in Angoulême has a facade with different detailed carved plaques that follow each other in 4 rows
A beautiful Romanesque edifice, this cathedral, built on the rocky outcrop of Angoulême, is a must-see landmark, like a lighthouse watching over the town. Its façade is a masterpiece of Romanesque art, and you can spend hours detailing the various sculpted plaques that follow one another in 4 rows, the highest of which is occupied by an imposing Christ in glory surrounded by the horsemen of the Apocalypse. Inside, don't miss a visit to the cathedral's treasury, staged by Jean-Michel Othoniel and featuring some 150 liturgical objects.

A l'intérieur un très beau vitrail moderne dit "le trésor" d'Angoulême .
De très beaux vitraux et fresques. Il fait bon s'y recueillir et admirer la splendeur de cet édifice.
