. Rambles in the Pyrenees and the adjacent districts, Gascony, Pays de Foix [and] Roussillon . ntly vary.It is now used as a lapidary museum. The sacristyand the chapel of the third order beneath it were builtby William de Montjoie (whose arms appear uponboth) in 1443. There is also a late fourteenth-centurychapel to the south of the nave. Attached to the northtransept is a large chapel which serves as parish church.The fagade is flanked by two little crenellated towers, and pierced by a fine rose-window. All the buildingwas fortified, even the transept and the rectangularportion of the choir, which are said to go back to thetwelfth century, which seems possible, since the iron-work of the windows is of the same pattern as theearliest screens at Chichester.
