Dating back to the 12th century, the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de la Sede blends Romanesque foundations with baroque and gothic features added over the centuries. Its prominent apses make the church stand out, while the interior is adorned with ornate ecclesiastical relics and works of art. Visit Cathédrale Notre-Dame de la Sede to take shelter from the heat of a summer afternoon inside its cool and sumptuous nave. Admire the color pattern of the brickwork on the round apses. The exterior is also notable for an elaborate rose window and central tower. Notice how the church’s exterior resembles a fortress it was constructed using round stones from the Adour River. Inspect the array of religious gems and ornaments in the treasure house. Head inside to witness the lively atmosphere in this busy church. Many worshippers come to this historic cathedral in the hope of being healed. Marvel at the opulence of the marble canopy that houses the main altar. Enter the Chapel of the Blessed Virgin and study the black marble wall engraved with words by King Louis XVI. Consider the rich history of the cathedral, which was built on a Merovingian cemetery. It is thought that St. Vincent de Paul was ordained as a deacon here at the end of the 16th century. The Cathédrale Notre-Dame de la Sede opens daily from early morning to evening and is free to enter. Respectfully tour the church on your own or attend a Mass. Services take place Tuesday through Friday in the late afternoon and on Sunday morning. Note that the church also has chaplaincy and school services. Walk west from the center of Tarbes for about 10 minutes to reach the cathedral or travel by bus to one of the many surrounding stops.
