Bascillica Of Saint Michael - Irish Rugby Tours to France

Basilica Of Saint Michael

Imposing on the Place Canteloupe in Bordeaux, this Gothic church took over 200 years to construct from the 14th to the 16th century.

Providing one of the most iconic views in the city, its 15th-century bell tower reaches up 114 metres and is the highest tower in southern France.

Similar to the Pey-Berland tower, the tower is independent from the church.

Its base retains a crypt that was formally an ossuary which means final resting place.

Then used as an exhibition for “mummies” unearthed in the nineteenth century during the development of the Place Meynard. This was the former parish cemetery.

The church Saint-Michel – became a minor basilica in 1903 – is now on the list of UNESCO World Heritage since 1998.

Musée d’Aquitaine.

The museum d’Aquitaine presents the history of Bordeaux and the surrounding regions.

From the prehistoric to the modern day through it’s collections of archeology, historical artefacts and regional and European ethnography.

A “Musée de civilisation”, the museum offers annual temporary exhibitions exploring themes about the history and cultures of the world.

It also gives a diverse selection of lectures, screenings, guided tours, concerts, meetings with foreign communities and educational workshops.
