About The Basilica Saint SERNIN of Toulouse finds her origin in the wish to honour the memory of SATURNIN, first bishop and martyr of Toulouse which lived in the first half of the III° C.
Built starting from XIe century for exalter the memory of Saturnin, first bishop and martyr of Toulouse, the Saint-Sernin basilica is the largest Romance church of Occident.
“It is necessary to be let dazzle by the incomparable vision which offers the bedside of the Saint-Sernin church contemplated to the raising sun…”, the abbot Jean Rocacher in his work “Saint-Sernin wrote” (Editions of the Zodiac, 1990).
In the south, the frontage reveals the geminated doors of the transept, dedicated to Saint-Sernin. In the west, an outer door of Renaissance style opens on the Miègeville door, whose decoration of 1110-1120 inspired several churches of the South and the Iberian peninsula.
Saint-Sernin, bishop and martyr First bishop of Toulouse, Saint Saturnin (of which the name transformed itself into “Sernin” under the influence of the language occitane) lived in Toulouse in first half of IIIe century. Its tragic destiny awaited it one day, where leaving to foot its residence to join the “House of God”, it was stopped in Capitole (which was then a pagan temple).
