Cathedrale Saint Andre

2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

KiNyA 730 reviews

In 1137, the future King Louis VII married Eleanor of Aquitaine in this cathedral. The exterior wall of the nave dates from 1096 (most of the rest was built in the 13th and 14th centuries). The 15-th century belfry, Tour Pey-Berland, stands behind the choir, which has chapels nestled among the flying buttresses.

You should be ready to "Bath" with wine if necessary. This is the "World Headquaters" for Wines.
