History
Church begun in the 13th century, taken up again, enlarged and completed towards the end of the 15th century. The vaults, partly destroyed at the time of the Wars of Religion, were subsequently restored. The bell tower, placed above the portal and occupying the first bay, dates from the end of the 15th century and belongs to the Toulouse school. This building is the only one in Montauban which remained standing after the Wars of Religion.
