  • 5/5 Pierre-Louis D. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Magnificent church! This treasure, having lived through the Revolution, is full of secrets and references. It seems to me important to note the beauty of the door, the great organ and the vertiginous dome. Despite its geographical position, the church is very quiet. I am very happy to learn that this place will be restored because it is a real architectural gem for our region. (Original) Magnifique église !

Je suis très heureux d'apprendre que ce lieu va faire l'objet d'une restauration parce que c'est un vrai bijou architectural pour notre région.

    The construction of the church began in 1602 and the Carthusian brothers, expelled from the charterhouse Notre-Dame de Bellevue in Saïx (near Castres) by the Protestants, decided to build a monastery sheltered by the walls of Toulouse. After the fall of the first dome in 1609, the building was erected. The church was consecrated by Cardinal François de Sourdis on May 20, 1612. After the Revolution, the monks were expelled and the convent was transformed into an arsenal. All that remains today is the church, the former pharmacy, elements of the monastery (including a notable brick exterior corridor) and part of the cloister. In 2001, the shock wave from the AZF factory explosion in the south of the city shook the church walls, forcing reinforcement work to be carried out. Some superficial cracks due to this episode are still visible. In September 2007, the parish of Saint-Pierre was integrated into the parish of Saint-Sernin and the church of Saint-Pierre became the seat of the student parish of Toulouse.

    This magnificent church is hidden in the middle of the urban fabric of Toulouse, and not far from the law school. It is also a privileged place for a large number of concerts by various groups. This church is richly decorated, the light only enters from the top.

    Church dedicated to Saint Peter right inside the Catholic university of Toulouse. Austere but very welcoming.

    The church is virtually hidden, its access is a simple door to the public road. However, upon entering the space it is a striking contrast, the practically all white interior with beautiful architectural details.

    It was by signing up for an Amiez outing that I had the opportunity to visit this church which is worth the detour because the sober exterior hides a great interior richness. The ideal is to be accompanied by a guide as there are so many details.

    Beautiful. The architecture is really something to see. A beautiful restful place in the city. I'd be really interested in coming back for an event when the organ is played. Hopefully that still happens.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful and above all welcoming church in the heart of the city. It is very discreet on the outside, but the inside offers a lot of interest! (Original) Belle et surtout accueillante église au cœur de la ville. Elle est très discrète à l'extérieur, mais l'intérieur offre beaucoup d'intérêt !

    Disappointed because.... Closed! We moved for nothing! We were attracted by the laudatory comments on the interior of the church and its riches. On the entrance it says open Monday to Friday, good luck if it's open for you!

    (Translated by Google) The other dome of the PINK CITY, but this quadrangular one! Church of great historical and architectural value which remains "hidden" from passers-by in a hurry. (Original) L' autre dôme de la VILLE ROSE, mais celui-ci quadrangulaire ! Église d' une grande valeur historique & architecturale qui demeure "cachée" du passant trop pressé.
