The Cathedral Sainte-Cécile d'Albi is a Roman Catholic church located in the city of Albi in southwestern France. Built in the 13th century, the cathedral is a masterpiece of southern Gothic architecture and is one of the largest brick buildings in the world. Its impressive size and grandeur are a testament to the power and wealth of the Catholic Church during the Middle Ages.
Inside, visitors can admire the stunning frescoes that cover the entire nave, as well as the numerous sculptures and stained glass windows that adorn the walls. The cathedral also houses the famous Organ of Jean-Baptiste Micot, which was installed in the 18th century and is still in use today.
In addition to its architectural and artistic treasures, the Cathedral Sainte-Cécile d'Albi also has historical significance.
