outstanding ! the brickwork is just incredible, so colourful, and it gives an interesting plasticity. The vault is interesting indeed, certainly not as amazing as the so-called Palmtree of the Jacobins church nearby but is worth spending some time !

I lived in Toulouse for five months, during which time this was my local parish church (I lived in the diverse and vibrant Quartier Arnaud Bernard just north). St-Sernin is the oldest Romanesque church in the Western World, and is absolutely gorgeous inside and out. The story of Saint Saturnin is also fascinating, explaining the adjoining Rue du Taur and the location.
