Two large domes dominate the Romanesque nave. They represent the most extraordinary example of the so-called "Aquitanian" architectural style: 16 meters in diameter and 32 meters high; only the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul has a taller dome. Also noteworthy is the small, golden church of Saint-Svair, with its large statue of Emperor Charlemagne, who presented it to the church of Cahors.

Worth seeing cathedral in Cahors.

This St. Etienne Cathedral impressed us deeply again! The building dates back to the 11th century and is very unique with its two domes. Only in Perigeux is there a cathedral with similar architecture. The special feature is the Saint Coiffe, a fabric relic in which the veil of Jesus from the tomb is venerated. In one dome you can see frescoes of saints, in the middle of St. Stephen, the first martyr of the Christians in Jerusalem. During our visit (September 2024), pictures by the late impressionist painter Henri Martin were projected onto the other gray dome. It is worth spending some time in the cathedral!

According to my research this bridge has nothing to do with Eiffel. The history of the Cahors railway bridge is intertwined with that of the Montauban-Brive line. Declared of public utility by the law of March 11, 1879, it was of capital importance because it was the shortest route between Toulouse and Paris. A first section between Montauban and Cahors led to the construction of several structures: bridges over the Tarn and Aveyron, viaducts and bridge over the Lot. The construction of the latter was entrusted to the Fives-Lille Company. The work, supervised by two civil engineers: Jean Lantereis and Jean-Pierre Lacaze, began in March 1880 and was completed in June 1883.

발랑트레 다리는 카오르 시의 상징적인 기념물 중 하나입니다. 독특하며 인상적입니다. 이 방어용 다리는 1308년부터 도시 영사들의 명령으로 건설되었습니다. 완벽한 상태는 1880년대 복원 덕분입니다. 다양한 조각에 주의를 기울이면 겁먹은 악마를 발견할 수도 있습니다. 이 다리는 실제로 악마의 다리라는 별명을 가지고 있습니다. 19세기 초 복원을 담당했던 건축가 폴 구(Paul Gout)는 이 전설을 조각된 돌로 불멸화했습니다. 이 돌은 다리의 돌을 떼어내려는 악마를 묘사하지만 성공하지 못합니다.
