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 square stands on the site of the original city fortifications and has long been used for parades and demonstrations. At one end is the imposing statue of President Sadi Carnot, assassinated in 1894. In 1956, the square was renamed Place New York Square in commemoration of Verrazzano's journey in the service of Francis I, who in 1524 named the site of present-day New York as New Angoulême.

The Angoulême Theatre dates back to the late 19th century. It was designed by the architect Antoine Soudée and built between 1867 and 1870. https://www.angouleme-tourisme.com/equipement/theatre-dangouleme-scene-nationale/ https://www.theatre-angouleme.org/

The current church was built by Paul Arbadie from 1849 to 1856. Previous churches on the same site date back to the 11th century. The church is in the Neo-Romanesque style.

Built in 1888 by architect Edouard Warin and engineer Pommier, the market halls replaced the Châtelet, a former 13th-century fortress later converted into a prison. The architecture was inspired by Parisian models. https://marche-halles.fr/

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."
