Église Saint-Jacques de Muret, Gothic church building in Muret, France.

Église Saint-Jacques de Muret is a red-brick Catholic church in Muret, Haute-Garonne, built over the 12th, 14th, 15th and 16th centuries. A square belfry with pointed arched openings and a corner balustrade with pinnacles carries a tall spire at the left front; the gabled facade to its right has a large pointed-arch doorway, three lancet windows and a small clock, with a stone crucifix against the wall between tower and entrance.

The church began its development in the 12th century and underwent successive phases of expansion and modification over several centuries. Its bell tower received official historical monument protection status in 1928, marking an important transition in how the structure was preserved.

The church takes its name from Saint James, and a statue of him from the 18th century was bequeathed in 1993 by Madame Dessort, daughter of the sculptor and dealer Ferrot. The crypt holds a 13th-century processional cross of Saint-Amans in embossed copper, carried until 1932 in the Saint-Amans church, with Christ on the front and Christ Pantocrator on the back.

The church stands in Muret, in the Haute-Garonne department. The octagonal Toulouse-style bell tower was classified as a historical monument in 1928, the entrance portal in 1935, and the whole building in 2005. Look for the carved stone lamp brackets bearing the arms of the kings of France and of the town of Muret, dated to the 16th century.

The 16th-century crypt was dug to protect the relics of Saint Germier from theft and vandalism. It also holds the bells of the Saint-Amans chapel and old stone crosses from the cemetery. Among the objects kept there is a polychrome wooden Pietà of the 15th–16th century, restored with green paint where blue once was.
