Collegiale Saint Quiriace

1 review of Collegiale Saint Quiriace

Eclectic and unfinished

Excellent

This large church was built in the 12th century by the Count Henri le Libéral and due to the financial difficulties of Philippe le Bel, has been left unfinished. The drop in trade fairs in the 15th century had a lot to do with this. The nave and porch should have been extended until the end of the square tower which separates the tower of Caesar. It has a mix of styles and the bare walls show their state. From the eleventh century a college of canons are in charge of singing seven times a day, many of them barefoot. It is pretty impressive, indeed.
