Rodez Cathedral

Rodez Cathedral is a Roman Catholic church situated in the town of Rodez, France. The house of God is a national landmark and is the seat of the Bishopric of Rodez. The shut west front once framed piece of the city mass of Rodez. Rodez was Christianized in the 4th-5th century AD, and the principal notice of a house of prayer dates from around 516. This structure was reconstructed c. 1000; nothing is left from it after the choice to remake it starting with no outside help in 1276.

The house of prayer is described by a momentous solidarity of style, which is for the most part the Gothic one imported by engineer Jean Deschamps into the Midi from northern France. The church building is developed of red sandstone. It has a serious façade, flanked by two tough towers, which sell out its guarded capacity: the west front once shaped piece of the city dividers of Rodez. The belltower, remaining at 87– m, is surmounted by a light conveying the statue of the Virgin with a choir of four angels.
