Wonderful surprise on the edge of the centre of Mirepoix.
Delightful ancient French cathedral, with numerous very old frescoes evident throughout the nave. Peaceful & charming. Well worth a detour to visit in the old Ariege town of Mirepoix.
It is a very old church, it began to be made at XII (1209 if I'm not wrong) century and had finished at XIX century. It's construction stopped between the years 1300-1400 because of the \hundred years war\ (England vs France) and because of a pest epidemic. An interesting landmark to be visit. I guess that it is one pf the oldest of France.
impressively high church
So stunningly beautiful! Even though I did not get in, just the view from outside looks amazing and just in the middle of the city.
Splendid place in Mirepoix. Mirepoix itself is a medieval village, a bastide, with such an impressive arhitecture. Have a look around and stop to see the Consul's House, or have a coffee at one of the beautiful cafés. If you are around mid-October, you might be right on time for the Apple Festival. And is a MUST to see the catedral, with is religious choir. Just so relaxing...
The spectacular and ancient Cathedrale St Maurice in Mirepoix France is well worth a visit. Quiet and contemplative atmosphere inside is complimented by the medieval architecture.
