    In the 11th century a Romanesque basilica was built with the ground plan of a Greek cross, the four naves of the same length were crowned with a cupola each. The crossing between the aisles has a fifth, even larger dome. It is a huge building for the time, which still surprises today with its harmonious shapes and dimensions.

    In the 19th century, the cathedral, which was threatened with decay, was completely renovated, although the commissioned architect Paul Abadie did too much in part and crowned the domes with historically inaccurate columned turrets and small figures in order to emphasize the Byzantine character of the building emphasize.

      The Saint-Front Cathedral in Périgueux is one of the city's most iconic monuments and a masterpiece of religious architecture in France. Built in the 12th century, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site as an important stop on the Way of St. James.

      Points of interest at the Saint-Front Cathedral:
      Unique Byzantine architecture:


      What immediately strikes you is its architectural style inspired by Byzantine churches, rare in France. The cathedral is topped with five large white domes, reminiscent of the style of St. Mark's Basilica in Venice or Hagia Sophia in Istanbul.
      Its imposing dimensions and its Greek cross plan, with equal arms, are unique characteristics for a French cathedral. The whole gives off an impression of power and serenity.
      History and transformations:


      Originally built in the 6th century as a funerary church around the tomb of Saint Front, evangelist of Périgord, it was rebuilt in its current form in the 12th century.
      In the 19th century, under the direction of the architect Paul Abadie, the cathedral was completely restored, giving it its current appearance. The restorations reinforced its Byzantine appearance while preserving elements from the medieval period.
      Interior and decor:


      Inside, the cathedral impresses with its vast and refined space. The domes elevate the gaze and create a spiritual and soothing atmosphere.
      The liturgical furniture, including the altar and pulpits, is very sober, contrasting with the grandeur of the architecture. Some side chapels are decorated with stained glass windows and sacred works of art.
      Heritage and the Way of Saint James:


      The cathedral is part of the Way of Saint James, which gives it a special importance for pilgrims. It is a spiritual and historical stage of this thousand-year-old route.
      The cloister adjacent to the cathedral is also a place of calm and contemplation, often open to visitors.
