Rebuilt in the 12th century on the remains of a first building from the 15th century, the Saint-Martin collegiate church in Brive-la-Gaillarde, in Corrèze, is dedicated to one of the city's patron saints. From the original site, visitors can still discover the transept, an octagonal cupola on pendentives, part of the apse, as well as beautiful carved capitals in the choir.
Redesigned many times, the collegiate church of Saint-Martin de Brive also reveals a bell tower in the Limousin neo-Romanesque style sixty meters high, as well as a crypt showing the remains of the first basilica.
Freely accessible from Monday to Saturday, it can also be discovered on a guided tour by appointment at the Brive Agglomeration tourist office.
