Sainte-Marthe, Royal collegiate church in Tarascon, France

The Sainte-Marthe church combines Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements, featuring a tripartite layout with decorated keystones and a polychrome organ case.

The construction started in the 12th century with the dedication in 1197, followed by extensions during the 14th and 15th centuries with Gothic additions.

The church houses the relics of Saint Martha in a 3rd-century crypt, attracting numerous pilgrims who gather for celebrations on July 29th each year.

The church maintains regular opening hours for visitors to explore its two superimposed levels, including the ancient crypt and the upper church section.

The southern portal displays Romanesque architecture that sustained damage during the French Revolution, while the tower needed reconstruction after 1944 bombing raids.
