About Cathedral Saint-Jérôme de Digne les Bains
Crowning the old upper town of Digne-les-Bains in the Alps of Haute-Provence, the Cathédrale Saint-Jérôme was built between the 15th and 16th centuries to serve as the town's cathedral in place of the older Notre-Dame-du-Bourg down in the valley. A sober late-Gothic building of pale stone, it stands among the narrow streets of the historic heart, its bell tower a landmark above the rooftops. Inside, its restrained architecture and calm light offer a peaceful contrast to the bustle of the modern spa town below. Steeped in the long religious history of this mountain diocese and set amid the lavender-scented landscapes of the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, the Cathédrale Saint-Jérôme is a quiet but dignified monument at the heart of Digne, well worth a pause when exploring the old town.
