This magnificent Romanesque church, built in 1244, appears from the outside quite sober and of great architectural simplicity. It conceals within it many treasures including paintings by great masters. The cathedral (because it is one) thus exhibits three magnificent Rubens, a Fragonard (the washing of the feet), a Charles Nigre, a Gaillard, and a Sébastien Bourdon.
It was transformed into a cathedral when the bishopric of Antibes was transferred to Grasse. It is important not to confuse it with the Notre-Dame-du-Puy cathedral, located in Le Puy-en-Velay. It is precisely for this purpose that Grasse is specified in his nomination.

A beautiful cathedral, not as much pomp and kitsch as is often the case.
