Église Sainte-Cécile du Carla, Gothic church in Castelnau-de-Lévis, France.

The church features a Latin cross layout with an east-facing chevet and a bell wall containing three openings at its summit.

Built in the 15th century on remains of a village burned during the Albigensian Crusade by Simon de Montfort's troops.

The interior walls display colorful frescoes created by local artist Casimir Ferrer, depicting themes of life and music.

The church opens on Sundays and holidays from 2 PM to 6 PM, with guided tours available through advance reservation.

The building maintains a mysterious geometric alignment with the Cathedral of Albi across the Tarn River valley.
