    It's really a beautiful place, specially if you check out its view. It has an incredible location right on the river bank, overlooking the Toulouse landscape and most of its landmarks. Check it out!

    We only randomly popped in here for a look but it’s quite a building, inside there’s renovations underway so there’s a screen painted to look at if the far end of the church is visible and in the low light at first I was fooled into thinking this was the real thing. The building certainly has a lot of atmosphere, there was a service about to start so we didn’t go beyond the entry way but I’m sure on other occasions it’s worth a wander around.

    An unassuming building from the outside but I was astounded by the size, beauty, detail and the serene atmosphere when you enter. A beautiful church!

    Stunning church located in the heart of Toulouse. The interior decoration is impressive, with high vaulted ceilings, ornate decorations, and beautiful stained glass windows. The church is a popular pilgrimage site, and it's easy to see why. Visitors of all faiths will appreciate the beauty and tranquility of this sacred space. It is worth a visit.

    It's free so hold any complaints. But feel free to be underwhelmed. If you're going to sit stick with the chairs. The pews will kill your back.

    Beautiful church that was built between 1764 and 1883. Previously, in the 6th century, a church was built, decorated with gilded mosaics; the present name derives from the old name, "Deaurata", (Latin: aura, gold). I was not able to enter it as it was under repair.

    Unassuming from the outside, when entering it was very dark but once inside it had beautiful paintings, stained glass windows and architecture. It is well worth a visit if in the area.

    A beautiful church with free admission. The bell tower is especially attractive, built completely from brick rather then stone.

    One of the most beautiful basilics in the center of Toulouse.

    Very beautiful Catholic church with lively, youthful community. The choir's singing is also impeccable, as well as the gorgeous and eye-catching architecture of the basilica. May God serve this church well.

    A lovely attraction and good to see that this church is in the process of being restored. The vantage point in front of the church is perfect for watching the sunset on the other side of the river
