Église Saint-Jean-Baptiste, Roman Catholic church in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, France.
The Église Saint-Jean-Baptiste features a 35-meter tower and contains intricate wooden galleries that contrast with its exterior architectural design.
The church gained prominence when King Louis XIV married Marie-Thérèse of Spain within its walls on June 9, 1660, during its construction period.
The monumental altarpiece, adorned with twenty statues and carved from gilded wood, extends across the entire height of the apse wall.
Visitors can explore the church through self-guided or guided tours, with each visit typically lasting approximately 30 minutes.
A wooden ship hangs from the ceiling of the church, representing the maritime heritage of Saint-Jean-de-Luz and its fishing community.
