This beautiful city church was built over a period of about a hundred years in the 11th and 12th Century. Located at the heart of the Cité Quarter of the city, it is one of the oldest examples of ecclesiastical architecture remaining in Périgueux. The church actually served as the cathedral of the city until the late 17th Century. Significant damage occurred to the church during the Wars of Religion, when the Huguenots attacked the city in the late 1500s.
