Église Saint-Aubin, Catholic church building in Saint-Aubin-Dupuy district, Toulouse, France
Église Saint-Aubin is a church in Toulouse that combines neogothic, Romanesque, and Byzantine architectural styles in its design. Its interior features a mix of decorative elements and structural details typical of 19th-century French religious buildings.
Construction started in 1847 on the site of a former cemetery, and the church opened for services in 1853 despite remaining unfinished in some areas. Changes made during building due to various constraints shaped the structure as it stands today.
The religious complex stands as a representation of 19th-century French Catholic architecture and continues to serve the local Catholic community.
The church is located at Impasse Saint-Aubin in Toulouse and can be reached on foot from the city center. It's best to check opening times in advance since they may vary and visiting access can sometimes be limited.
This building came from an anonymous design competition where different architects submitted proposals. Budget constraints during construction meant the original winning design was significantly altered before completion.
