The Church of Saint‑Agricol is one of Avignon’s oldest parish churches, dedicated to the city’s patron saint. Originally founded in the 7th century and rebuilt in the 14th century, it reflects the transition from Romanesque to Gothic architecture. Its façade, marked by elegant stonework and a central rose window, opens into a luminous interior where slender columns and vaulted ceilings create a sense of harmony. The church houses notable artworks, including altarpieces and stained glass that narrate episodes of local devotion. Saint Agricol, revered for his compassion and miracles, remains a symbol of Avignon’s spiritual identity, and the church continues to serve as a place of worship and community gathering. Nestled near the bustling Place de l’Horloge, it offers visitors a quiet refuge and a direct link to the city’s religious heritage, blending history, faith, and artistry in enduring stone.
