Saint Mary’s Cathedral of Auch and the Tour d'Armagnac.

Highlight • Other

The Cathedral of Saint Mary (French: cathédrale Sainte-Marie) is the main place of worship in the city of Auch, France, the episcopal seat of the archdiocese of the same name.
It is above all famous for its series of beautiful sixteenth-century stained glass windows and the stupendous 113 wooden choir stalls finely and richly carved with biblical scenes.
The cathedral has been a historical monument of France since 1906 and was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in the chapter French Roads to Santiago de Compostela in 1998.

Statue of d'Artagnan

Highlight • Other

With this monument at the bottom of a monumental staircase that leads from the river to the cathedral, the city also pays tribute to a literary hero: the fictional character d'ARTAGNAN, created by the writer Alexandre DUMAS (1802 to 1870), along with Athos, Porthos and Aramis the Brave Heroes in "The Three Musketeers".
He chose Charles de Batz, Comte d'Artagnan, whose childhood and youth he spent here, as his historical role model.
