Collégiale Saint Agricol, Gothic church in historic center, Avignon, France.
The Collegiate Church of Saint Agricol features pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and large stained glass windows characteristic of Gothic architecture.
Originally built in the 7th century, the church was elevated to collegiate status by Pope John XXII in 1321 and underwent major renovations in the 15th century.
The church maintains an active parish life with regular masses, sacramental preparations, and religious education programs for the local Catholic community.
The bell tower contains four bells cast by Monet, with the main bell tuned to C3, ringing daily for services and religious celebrations.
The building incorporates flying buttresses, an architectural element rarely found in religious structures of the Provence region.
