Vivier 6 - St. Vincent's Cathdral

St. Vincent Cathedral is the smallest cathedral in France, but it is a small diocese. We were given a pipe organ concert with 17th century music. Beautiful! The organ was built in 1841; the door area was rebuilt to support the organ.
The cathedral was started in the 11th century. The cathedral was changed at 4 different times. There are markings of Romanesque and Flambuoyant Gothic. The Altar was built in early (bottom) and late (top) 18th century. The choirseats are 18th century walnut.
