    One of the largest cathedrals in southern France took around 300 years to build. 107 m long, 36 m wide and 30 m high under the vault. Made of pink local sandstone. The construction took so long not only because of the 100-year war, the epidemics (plague), but also because of the division of the diocese of Rodez in 1317 and then a financing problem. The facade has no entrance gate, this wall was one with the city wall. The flamboyant Gothic bell tower is 87m high and was built in just 13 years by François d'Estaing in the 16th century.
