Montpellier Places of Worship & Religious Sites
• A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide to Places of Worship & Religious Sites in Montpellier, Languedoc.
Cathédrale Saint-Pierre + My Favorites
Cathédrale Saint-Pierre is an impressive cathedral located outside of the city centre of Montpellier. Twin towers rise from the cathedral, and these tend to overshadow all of the surrounding buildings. The entrance is located in the doorway on the Rue du Cardinal Cabrières, which is marked by gunshot marks fired by Royalist troops in the early 19th century. The 19th century stained glass windows were recently restored. Many paintings are located within the cathedral, and the most impressive of these is Sébastien Bourbon's 1621 masterpiece The Demise of Simon le Magicien. Admission is free.
