Collégiale Notre-Dame, Gothic church in Villeneuve-lès-Avignon, France.
The Collégiale Notre-Dame features pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and flying buttresses, demonstrating the structural principles of Gothic ecclesiastical architecture in southern France.
Construction of the church began in 1314, and Cardinal Arnaud de Via, nephew of Pope John XXII, consecrated the building in 1333.
The church contains tombs of religious figures and artistic elements that reflect the strong connection between Villeneuve-lès-Avignon and the Avignon papacy period.
Located near the Rhône River, the church opens daily to visitors who can explore its architecture, cloister, and religious artifacts through guided tours.
The bell tower, added in 1362, rises above the Rhône valley and remains one of the tallest structures in Villeneuve-lès-Avignon.
