(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4 The church seen from the suspension bridge in 1897 Saint-Michel church is raised at X It is century, first of all as an abbey church of the Saint-Michel de Gaillac abbey, which is itself founded in 972, after a donation of Frotaire I is , bishop of Albi. Since the XII It is A century, the city of Gaillac had become an important city, and required the establishment of new parishes in order to manage the flood of new inhabitants. This is how the monks of the abbey partially transform their church into a parish church, retaining the choir for their offices. After the damage caused by the Hundred Years War then the black plague, the Saint-Michel church, as well as the abbey, still underwent an ordeal between 1562 and 1572, during the wars of religion, when the city undergoes several times fights between Catholics and Protestants. These struggles ended in 1572, with a violent massacre of Protestants. The latter are defenestrated from the abbey and completed in the Tarn by boatmen. Protestants still leave their mark on the building, through the construction of the massive rectangular tower, serving today as a bell tower [ first ] . After this dark episode, the building is restored, over the following two centuries with the materials of the old building, but is again ruined by the French Revolution. The church is then pillaged, then requisitioned, serving as a warehouse and saltpeter plant. New repairs are undertaken under restoration, during which the nave took a neo-classical style, which will last until 1849, when a neo-Roman portal was added to the west [ 2 ] . But even before the end of the work, the Saint-Michel church is classified as historic monuments by list of 1840 [ first ] . Many objects are referenced in the Palissy base (see the linked notices) [ first ] .

After the destruction attributable to the wars of religion, are preserved in the new churches only a few walls, as well as the chapels of the choir. The latter in itself is completely modified, and is equipped with a hemicycle in a cul-de-four, but also a circular gallery leading to the chapels. The nave is rebuilt without aisle and is now 47.5 meters long by 17 meters wide, for almost 25 meters high. The tower built by Protestants (on bases dating from the XIII It is century) is used as a bell tower. The 54 columns inside the church are surmounted by capitals, on which we still see vestiges of old paintings. Attached to the back of the bell tower, there is a chapel dating from the XV It is century [ first ] , or XIV It is century [ 2 ] (according to sources). She would be the work of Roger de Latour, Abb\u00e9 de Gaillac, who would have ordered her to install his burial there, and left her mark there through the presence of her badge on the keystone.
