Ruins of the Saint-Mathurin Basilica

Highlight • Historical Site

Here we find the ruins of the Saint-Mathurin basilica, a Gothic-style church dedicated to the healer of the mad. It was built at the end of the 12th century by the builders of the chapter of Notre-Dame. It welcomed crowds of pilgrims until its fire in 1490.
