The Saint-Feuillen collegiate church was built on the site of a Merovingian sanctuary dedicated to Saint Peter and two successive Carolingian constructions. Around 1086, the eastern part of the choir as well as a crypt were built. Of these earlier buildings, only the Ottonian avant-corps and the transept remain. The naves and their chapels were rebuilt between 1721 and 1723.
The front part, dating from the end of the 10th century, is flanked by two staircase turrets and topped by a powerful Romanesque tower made of limestone rubble. It has four floors and is crowned with a baroque spire from the early 18th century. The nave, in brick and blue stone, is flanked by limestone rubble aisles, which are annexed by two chapels with brick gables. The bays are vaulted with ribs covered with stucco and double arches with classical motifs. The projecting transept was half leveled in the 18th century, it is one of the preserved vestiges of the previous buildings (Carolingian and Romanesque). The choir consists of five bays covered with groin vaults. It is annexed by a three-sided axial chapel from 1655 and surmounts the 11th century crypt.
Let us highlight some remarkable pieces of furniture such as the Baroque high altar, the 16th century stalls and the Romanesque baptismal font.
