Abbatiale de Saint Gilles

Once a popular destination for pilgrims from all over the world, the monument is now listed as a World Heritage Site as part of the "Pilgrim's Way to Santiago de Compostela in France" series.

Take the time to admire its sculpted façade, an authentic masterpiece of Romanesque art. You will find a frieze with an iconography dedicated to the Passion of Christ.

Discover its monumental crypt, a real low church. Exceptional for its size and the quality of its vaults, it still contains the tomb of Saint Gilles.

The abbey is a Unesco World Heritage Site.
