    This is a former church that was de-dedicated and is now used as a location for exhibitions. The diverse space with breaks in walls, niches, openings and old windows is ideal for showcasing the old with the new

    Deconsecrated church, adapted as a place for artistic and various exhibitions

    In fact this church is deconsecrated. I walked it on Sunday December 10. It is currently superbly decorated for the end of year celebrations. There are also traders selling figurines and Occitanie products (calissons, nougats, honey, chocolates, etc.). The interior architecture is interesting. A good time to spend for adults and children.

    (Translated by Google) This place demolished from the church offers us at each event, a case of magic, following the organized Expo. At the moment the walls have found their origin, offer us, "La Crèche".💖💖💖💖💖 (Original) Cet endroit défait de l'église nous offre à chaque événement , un écrin de magie, suivant l'Expo organisé.
