A fascinating church in Narbonne with long history as noted here by other posters. We went specifically to see the crypt, which has dug into the adjoining burial ground to expose centuries of sarcophagi and layers of bone in the dirt. A real descent into the underworld accessed through this church, which has evidence of destruction from the French Revolution as well as the famous frog in the holy water basin.

There is something about the cathedrales in France. The Cathedrale St Just in Narbonne is very impressive. You cannot help to feel humble and quiet if you wander through this magnificent building. It is right in the centre of Narbonne and it has a lovely garden.

Beautiful abbey just outside Narbonne (you need transport). In an excellent state of repair and an informative leaflet (although the downloadable PDF is better- available French, English, Spanish). The cloisters are interesting, as are the gardens, but the piece de resistance is the church with its incredible stained glass windows. We came back in the evening to watch the light show (10-midnight). We were concerned that we would just see everything again, but in the evening, but the show was completely different and an excellent evening experience. The beautifully done show in the tour d’honneur/ courtyard (french only) was the highlight, as was a nice light show in the Louis XIV courtyard. Not too expensive (unless you opt for their meal+show, which we didn’t).

This church is featured heavily in Dan Brown's 'The Divinci Code' and is surrounded in mystery. The original Church was renovated by François Bérenger Saunière From 1887 to 1897 with no expense spared. Many of his renovations including the Stations of the Cross can still be seen. A must visit in the area.

This former benedictine abbey was founded during the 8th century. It used to be a bishop see from 1317 to 1789, after which, it was abandoned until it was listed as Historical Monument during the 1840s.Discover the 14th century cloister with its sculpted capitals, the former cathedral with all its decorations, and also the Master of Cabestany's sculptures (12th century).Following which, you can visit the former fortified village which has kept its medieval character.
