Apt Cathedral

Saint Auspice was martyred at the end of the third century and the first church built on the site was in the fifth century, only to be destroyed 300 years later by the Saracens.

The current cathedral started to be built in the 11th century and has had many additions and renovations over the years. During the Revolution the cathedral was vandalised, re-opening again in 1801.

Inside are two crypts where you will find niches containing the relics of Saint Auspice, Saint Martian, St. Castor and Sainte Anne. There are numerous Roman stelae with Latin inscriptions, a Romanesque style sanctuary and saracophagi from the 13th century.
