According to legend, this church was built on the spot where the body of Saturninus of Toulouse, in his martyrdom, broke loose from the bull (Latin taurus) that dragged him behind him. The church stands in Rue du Taur, between Place du Capitole and the Basilica of Saint-Sernin. It was already included in the list of monuments historiques in 1840. Source: Wikipedia

The Notre-Dame du Taur Church is a Catholic religious building located at 12 bis rue du Taur between the Place du Capitole and the Saint-Sernin Basilica in Toulouse city centre. The church, built between the fourteenth and sixteenth centuries, is one of the most important monuments of southern Gothic art. It is particularly famous for its high facade, a bell tower wall that blends into the street's constructions.

According to early Christian tradition, the church was built on the spot where the martyred body of Bishop Saturninus would have detached itself from the bull that was dragging it behind it. Bishop Hilarius established a martyrdom there, which was expanded by his successor Silve at the end of the fourth century.
