Collégiale Saint-Laurent de Salon-de-Provence, Gothic church in Salon-de-Provence, France.

The Collégiale Saint-Laurent features a distinct architectural design with crossed vaults, a single nave, and separated chapels within its stone walls.

Construction of the church began in 1344 under Archbishop Jean de Cardonne, but plague epidemics and invasions delayed its completion until 1480.

The church contains fifteen paintings depicting the life of Christ and two notable sculptures from the former Cordeliers monastery, classified as historic monuments.

The church building underwent substantial restoration work between 2008 and 2009, with an investment of 2.5 million euros for facade improvements.

The remains of Nostradamus were transferred to Saint-Roch chapel of the collegiate church in 1791 after his original tomb was desecrated.
