Église Saint-Pierre de Blagnac, Gothic church in Blagnac, France.
Église Saint-Pierre de Blagnac is a red-brick church in Blagnac, Haute-Garonne. Its tall bell tower rises in stages to an octagonal spire topped by a small cross, with narrow arched openings, a round white clock face and a white statue in a niche above pale green double doors. A smaller round turret stands to the left, and the church body with a sloping roof and flat buttresses extends to the right.
