The church of Saint-Eucaire was built between the 12th and 14th centuries on the site of a previous church of this name, first mentioned in 944\. Its 12th century bell tower is probably the oldest in the city. Massive and square in appearance, it is pierced by Romanesque openings on each of its faces. It served as a municipal belfry until the construction of the cathedral in 1220, which replaced it in this function. The crypt of the church also dates from this period. The chapel of Esch and the chapel of Saint-Nicolas were erected in the fifteenth century. They are both in flamboyant Gothic style and feature magnificent decors.
In a niche of the chapel of Esch is a polychrome Pietà of the fourteenth century. There is also a sculpture of 1439 depicting St Veronica holding the veil impregnated with the face of Christ.
