Crossing this Europe Bridge, you have an extraordinary view of the old town as well as the Romanesque bridge. The Eygues river that this thousand-year-old structure spans helps to give a special character to the city of Nyons.

Saint-Vincent Church

Highlight • Other

The location of a church in this part of the town dates back to the emergence of Christianity in the Eygues Valley. Destroyed three times over the centuries, the current church dates from 1614. It consists of a single nave bordered by ten side chapels. This church contains numerous treasures: the mausoleum of the Dauphiné heroine Philis de la Charce, the carved wooden altar from the former monastery of Saint Cézaire, the statue of the Virgin Mary located above the entrance door, and the Italian school painting of the Nativity, attributed to Ribera, a replica of which is in the Louvre.

The Church of Saint-Vincent in Nyons is mentioned as early as the end of the 10th century. However, the current building was rebuilt during the first half of the 17th century, after the destruction caused by the Wars of Religion. Its wide nave retains a Romanesque appearance.

In 2009 and 2010, the church underwent a complete renovation, which included the restructuring and expansion of the sacristy, restoration of the vaults and paintings, the creation of a small exhibition room, asbestos removal from the boiler room, repairs to the roofs and facades, and replacement of the interior and exterior lighting.
The interior work and the restoration of the paintings were carried out by the municipality, in collaboration with the ABF (Architect of Buildings of France) and the Sacred Arts Commission.


Several remarkable paintings are preserved in the Church of St. Vincent and are regularly restored. They date from the first half of the 17th century: They came from a former Recollect convent (now the Temple):
• two works attributed to painters from Velay, Jean and Guy François, inspired by Caravaggio (The Adoration of the Shepherds and Saint Bonaventure); • a painting by Guillaume Perrier, brother of François Perrier, The Two Families of Christ;
• four paintings by a painter from the first half of the 17th century, inspired in particular by the Venetian school (The Burial of Christ, Christ with Martha and Mary, Christ and Mary Magdalene, as well as an Ecce Homo).


The altar tabernacle of the Saint-Joseph chapel is the work of a sculptor from Rouen, Pascal Jouvenet, who was a Recollect monk in Nyons and who created tabernacles for other Recollect convents (chapel of the local hospital in Bourg-Saint-Andéol, church in Montferrand). More than fifteen paintings displayed in the church are listed as historic monuments.
