ST. PETER'S CHURCH
St. Peter's Church is the former college of the canons, given in 1246. It is a Romanesque building with a nave of four spans, supplemented and embellished in the th and th centuries by the construction of the steeple, and then a Gothic chapel in flamboyant Gothic style. Louis XI's canons destroyed the original bell in 1465. The revival of the Renaissance, which once surpassed the altar, disappeared, victim of the decisions of the Vatican II Council. The fresco is probably the Virgin and a donor, frequent pictorial theme in the Middle Ages. The donor is always presented smaller than the main character. See also the curious statue of San Sebastian represented here with his hammer and a cluster of grapes, thus he presents himself to the faithful entering the church.
