Located just 4 km from the campsite, the Palais des Évêques in Saint-Lizier and the Cathedral of Notre-Dame-de-la-Sède are UNESCO World Heritage-listed monuments. As a Great Site of Occitania, Saint-Lizier is one of the most beautiful towns in Ariège and France, perched on a hill above the Salat River, close to Saint-Girons. This former Gallo-Roman site, with its Palais des Évêques, is rich in treasures and tells the story of its fascinating past.
Saint-Lizier, in the heart of Couserans, can be explored through its charming cobbled streets, secret passages, and pretty flower-filled squares, making it a peaceful haven. Around every corner, the views are breathtaking, offering vistas of lush meadows, forests, winding rivers, and the distant, snow-capped Pyrenees. Here, the calm brings serenity.
A visit to the Palais des Évêques includes the discovery of the Departmental Museum, the Cathedral of Notre-Dame-de-la-Sède, and the exhibition space. The Departmental Museum of Ariège, located within the Palais des Évêques, showcases the history of Couserans over 2000 years through a variety of collections and a modern, engaging museographic journey that appeals to both young and old.
The Cathedral of Notre-Dame-de-la-Sède in Saint-Lizier is one of the most beautiful religious buildings in Midi-Pyrénées. Long inaccessible, this place now unveils a rare example of Renaissance painted decoration. This rich pictorial ensemble, created using ochre, charcoal, and lime, covers the vaults and walls of the building, immersing visitors in a calming atmosphere.
Upon arriving in the village, one is struck by the beauty and richness of the architecture. Several locations are steeped in history, with astonishing monuments listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites as part of the Camino de Santiago. In Saint-Lizier, there are not one but two cathedrals that have proudly stood for centuries. The Cathedral of Notre-Dame-de-la-Sède, at the heart of the Bishop’s Palace, reveals monumental paintings in the Renaissance style. This former episcopal residence also houses a museum that offers a journey from antiquity to the present day.
