About the location

Église Saint-Pierre

Rue du Général Ducournau, 63400 Orthez

Pyrénées-Atlantiques
Nouvelle-Aquitaine

This church was built outside the city wall and had its own walled enclosure attached to the city. Its construction alternates between period of construction and stop.
Three main building periods are visible: Late 12th century: construction of the choir. 14th-15th centuries: construction of the nave. 19th century: addition of a span and construction of the neo-gothic bell tower.
