The "Collégiale Saint-Yrieix" was the center of a collegiate, that evolved from a convent founded by Saint Arédius (aka Saint Yrieix) around 560. The tomb of Saint Arédius was an early place of pilgrimage and a large church got erected from the 11th century on, when the monks had been replaced by a chapter of canons.
The oldest parts of the collegiate-church are the Romanesque portal and the tower. The wide nave was erected end of the 12th century, according to the "Base Mérimée".
A large group of venerable saints have lined up. Massproduced sculptures of the 19th century. They seem to look right, where the referee just talks about fair play.
