Toulouse Cathedral, Catholic cathedral in Toulouse, France
The Toulouse Cathedral presents contrasting architectural elements, with a Romanesque nave from 1078 and a Gothic choir constructed in 1272 joined by a central pillar.
The cathedral's foundations date to the 3rd century, with Saint Saturnin establishing the first chapel before the construction of subsequent religious structures on the site.
The cathedral houses two organs, including the main tribune instrument from 1612 and a choir organ from 1868, along with intricately carved walnut wood stalls.
Visitors can explore the cathedral between 8:00 AM and 7:00 PM from Wednesday through Monday, with modified hours on Sundays and direct access via metro.
The structure contains an irregular facade resulting from the combination of two incomplete churches and the use of brick due to regional stone scarcity.
