Église Saint-Jacques de Béziers, Romanesque church in Béziers, France.

Saint-Jacques church stands at the edge of Béziers hill, presenting views of the Orb river and the Pyrenees mountains in the distance.

The church, documented since the ninth century, housed an Augustinian abbey established in 908 with Aimeri as its first abbot.

The tympanum of the church depicts the Last Judgment, a work dated 1862 marking the completion of expansion work.

The church welcomes visitors on Mondays and Fridays from 2:30 PM to 5:00 PM during the summer season from June to September.

A fire in the organ chamber in 1960 revealed hidden Romanesque architectural elements, including columns and capitals.
