The Ministère de la Culture's notice

En 1779, un bienfaiteur a construit un bâtiment pour la communauté, une sorte de grange aménagée. En 1875, le conseil presbytéral de Caussade entreprend la construction d'un nouveau temple. En 1873, un terrain est acheté et un projet est dressé par l'architecte diocésain.

S'inspirant du temple de Nérac, l'architecte propose un plan centré qui est d'abord refusé par la commission diocésaine qui conseille un plan basilical.

In 1779, a benefactor built a building for the community, a kind of arranged barn. In 1875, the presbyteral council of Caussade undertakes the construction of a new temple. In 1873, land is purchased and a project is drawn up by the diocesan architect.

Inspired by the temple of Nérac, the architect proposes a centralised plan which is first rejected by the diocesan commission which advises a basilical plan.
