Collégiale de Bédouès, Medieval collegiate church in Bédouès-Cocurès, France.

The collegiate church features a Greek cross layout with schist stone construction and contains both the main sanctuary and canonical residences above.

Pope Urban V initiated the construction through a papal bull in 1363 to establish a burial place for his parents in his native region.

The entrance tympanum displays Pope Urban V's coat of arms, reflecting the strong connection between the church and this influential religious figure.

The church maintains regular visiting hours with guided tours available at an entrance fee of 5 euros for adult visitors.

The structure underwent transformation from a Latin cross to a Greek cross layout following its partial destruction during the 16th-century religious wars.
