Collégiale Saint-Michel de Castelnaudary, Medieval church in Castelnaudary, France.

The Collegiate Church Saint-Michel features a vaulted nave reaching 23 meters in height, supported by stone ribs and nine lateral chapels.

Built between 1240 and 1270, the church received collegiate status in 1318 during the establishment of the Saint-Papoul diocese.

During the 18th century, the collegiate chapter employed two cantors, an organist, and choir boys for religious ceremonies.

The religious building, registered as a historical monument since 1910, welcomes visitors to discover its southern Gothic architecture.

The bell tower contains a set of 35 bells forming a carillon, representing one of the largest collections in France.
