Its location, near the city walls and an old city gate, corresponds to that of a primitive sanctuary, predating Christianity, probably a temple dedicated to Jupiter. A first cathedral was built during the 4th century, dedicated to Saint Saturninus. The building disappeared when Clovis captured Angoulême in 508, after he drove out the Visigoths following the victory at Vouillé in 507. Clovis and then King Charibert ordered the cathedral's reconstruction in honor of Saint Peter.[2] This second cathedral was consecrated in 566 by Saint Germain, Bishop of Paris, and Saint Euphronius, Bishop of Tours, and is mentioned in Gregory of Tours' History of the Franks.[Note 1] It was burned down, probably by the Normans. The third cathedral was the work of Grimoard of Mussidan, Bishop of Angoulême (991-1018). He was also Abbot of Brantôme in Périgord and used the abbey's revenues to finance its construction. Begun around 991 and consecrated in 1015, it lasted only a century, its dimensions being too small. Only the north wall remains in the second and third bays of the nave, beneath the windows.

The biblical accounts of the New Testament, which describe the events in the life of Jesus and his disciples, paint a very nuanced picture of the Apostle Peter (Saint-Pierre), to whom the church of Angoulême is dedicated: On the one hand, he is a convinced and determined disciple of Jesus, but also not free from human weakness and fear. In the Garden of Gethsemane, he falls asleep (like the other disciples) when Jesus turns to God the Father after the Last Supper and asks the disciples to pray as well; and after Jesus' arrest, Peter denies three times that he even knows him. But he also weeps over his weakness and, upon encountering the risen Christ, professes his love and loyalty to him. His real name is Simon, but Jesus gives him the name Peter (which means rock), upon which the church is to be built, and he gives him—according to the account of the Evangelist Matthew—the "keys to the kingdom of heaven."

Originally, the Fleurac mill – on the Charente, at the foot of the castle of the same name – was a wheat and oil mill from the 16th century. It was almost entirely rebuilt at the end of the 19th century, transformed into a paper mill in 1978, then purchased in 1983 by the General Council of Charente and transformed into a paper museum. Abandoned for several decades, it was transformed into a paper mill in 1978 by Mr. Lacombe, descendant of a family of papermakers for four generations. Faced with financial difficulties, this attempt was taken over by an association “Les amis de la tradition papetière d’Angoumois et des provinces voisins” which relaunched the activity of this mill, where paper was made in a vat from linen and cotton using 18th century techniques. The manufacturing equipment and the water wheel were rebuilt. It has been listed as a historic monument since 1984. Today, the Moulin de Fleurac is private property but the site of this mill on the banks of the Charente remains a very popular place for tourists.
