Cavaillon Cathedral

A 12th century building with elaborately decorated interior

featured in Sights & Sites

From the outside you can't really tell what a beautiful cathedral this is, rich with carvings, gold leaf and painted walls, ceilings and archways.

The original building dates from the 12th century, although much of what you can see today was added in around the 17th century.

The gilded altar and the paintings around it are really impressive, as are the highly ornamental painted walls and columns.
