Built in an agglomeration that was to become the Cité, the bishop's town opposite the town of the Viscount's castle and the Saint-Martial abbey, its origin is probably early Christian. In 1884, Antoine Héron de Villefosse published an inscription that he saw engraved on a fragment "engaged in the base of the entrance tower of the cathedral, NE pillar", which according to him could be a re-use of a Roman milestone.
