Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux Cathedral
It was formerly the seat of the Bishop of Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux. The diocese (sometimes, like the town, also known as Saint-Paul-en-Tricastin) was created in either the 4th or the 6th century and was abolished under the Concordat of 1801, when its territory was divided between the Diocese of Avignon and the Diocese of Valence, known since 1911 as the Diocese of Valence (–Die–Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux).
Building historyedit
The present cathedral was built in the 12th-13th centuries and replaced an earlier one, of which some mosaics survive. It is in the ProvençalRomanesque style, of which it is a particularly fine example, reusing Roman building materials.
