Église Saint-Laurent
Saint-Laurent was founded in the 6th century as the chapel of an abbey.
The present church dates to 1429 and finally completed in the 19th century.
The organ was built by François and Hippolyte Du Castel
between 1682 and 1685. Over the centuries it has been
rebuilt and restored in four different centuries
but 20 original stops date from before the revolution.
You can hear this magnificent organ
on Saturday and Sunday masses and for occasional concerts.
