El claustre de Sent Liser / St. Lizier cloister

Vista del claustre romanic de la (antiga) catedral de St. Lizier.

 

La vila de Sent Líser (Saint Lizier en francès) es troba en un puig sobre el riu Salat, just al nord de St. Girons. Té la particularitat de comptar amb no una, sino DUES ex-catedrals. Aquesta és una de les dues, l'altra es troba al cim del nucli antic, i s'anomena N. D. de la Sède. Una cosa molt complicada de legalisme canonic medieval. Sembla que va tenir un sol bisbe però amb dos capitols catedralicis separats. En fi.

=============================================

 

The romanesque cloister of the former cathedral of St. Lizier.

 

Saint Lizier (Sent Líser in occitan) is nice old village above the Salat river. It has the really unusual detail of having TWO former cathedrals. I can't really understand what happened, but it seems that in the middle ages it was the seat of a bishop, but with two cathedrals, and all was abolished during the French Revolution. The other (former) cathedral is known as N. D. de-la-Sède.
