This imposing building with its beautiful stained glass windows is characteristic of the period of the law of separation of Church and State (1905). Opened for worship on Christmas Day 1905, it was consecrated in 1965 and celebrated its centenary in 2006. During restoration work undertaken at the end of 2005, under the original floor, several sarcophagi and the bases of buildings were discovered.

Apremont Castle

Highlight • Castle

The first Apremont castle was polygonal.
It was built in the 11th century on the promontory which dominates the Vie river and its valley.
Rebuilt in the 16th century, it is today largely in ruins, but has preserved several imposing buildings.
You can discover the history of this castle from the traces of the old medieval fortress to the Renaissance towers built in the 16th century. There are free tours as well as guided tours.
