- History Church of St Pierre d'Auxerre

- From the first centuries of Christianity, the lower part of the city had, like others, its church and monastery were placed under the invocation of St. Peter. Some authors have tried as Saint Peter's Church took over a pagan temple high in the old Autricus; others attribute the origin to Saint Pilgrim himself, but there is nothing to accept these traditions.

JPEG - 9.8 koSaint Pierre

- In Regulation saint Aunaire for public prayers (late sixth century) we find, for the first time, the mention of the Basilica of St. Peter, later called Church of St. Peter and St. Paul. Clerks there were officers by the bishops under the direction of a canon of the cathedral was the dean. They were responsible for the instruction of the Gallo-Roman people of this part of the old city that still remained.

- The irruption of the Saracens, in the middle of the eighth century, stopped the peaceful life of the clergy and destroyed the homes that, outside of the city, had escaped the invasion of Attila.

- After many vicissitudes, the Saint-Pierre, became a college of canons, was restored in 1107 by Bishop Humbaud who established the Canons Regular of the institution Yves de Chartres, of the order of church St Augustine, and began a dean at their head. In 1277 a major fire badly damaged the monastery

- 1470, Guy de Toucy transformed the Chapter as the abbey of Saint-Piere du Bourg to distinguish the church of Saint-Pierre-en-Castle which was in the precincts of the city (Labbe, man. I library., 458). This time reborn, to St. Peter, an era of prosperity endowments bishops and the regularity of its religious assured her church. In the fourteenth century the Hundred Years War the impoverished many, and never could recover from its importance.

- In 1567, the capture of the city by the Huguenots brought the plunder of the Saint-Père, and burning of the abbey home. Bands of soldiers, who were masters of the town, had set fire to the tower of the church recently built at the expense of the inhabitants of the parish. The roof was burnt and the bells melted, but the tower remained standing.

- The boundaries of the parish Holy Father and censive Abbey in the sixteenth century may give an idea of what remained of the Gallic city after the establishment of Christianity. To determine, simply draw a line Chantepinot door to St. Pancras Tower from the right side of the street Paul Bert, Nicolas Moor of Butchers and Sub-Walls. The river as a basis for the east and the city walls to the south. Leaving the city the way that leads to Preuilly beside the Fatet house, and all climates that are between the path and the river were also censive of the Holy Father (Sentence of the bailiwick of Auxerre were followed October 8, 1565. Fund of the Saint-Père). The parish of Saint Pilgrim, being a branch of the Holy Father, was encompassed within its boundaries.

- But it was not until the construction of the city walls that the parish Holy Father took an increase that was not stopped by the war and destruction that always followed. The monks acted, again, as we have already seen in other areas, they gave leases to perpetual annuities vacant land their vast parish in charge to establish homes (The Sentence of the Bailiwick 1565 reports "that this estoit formerly arable land, and gardens and some clozeaux bastimens we tenoit Abbey."). The fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, there are still traces of these operations (Archive 1'Yonne, Pope Fund).

- The Abbot of the Holy Father was primitive priest of the parish church, and he often had disputes with the parishioners. A monk tells these discussions with your bias and curious complaint. The altar of the parish was placed at the door of the choir since the organization of the parish in the twelfth century. But later time, the nave, which was very small, not enough, they wanted to invade the choir. - Resistance of the monks, trial and conviction of the parishioners. There were also quarrels without number, for the latter, about the use of bells, which are placed in the high tower in the middle of the choir, were not readily available to them. Also, at the beginning of the sixteenth century, they resolved to build a beautiful tower next to their church to place their own bells. The company, started in 1536, was completed in 1577.
