About Nevers Cathedral

The Nevers Cathedral, is regularly known as Cathedral of Saint Cyricus and Saint Julitta of Nevers, is a Roman Catholic church situated in the town of Nevers, France. It is a national landmark and devoted to Saints Cyricus and Julitta. The house of prayer is the seat of the Bishop of Nevers. Cyricus, and his mom, Julitta are adored as early Christian saints. As per custom, they were killed at Tarsus in AD 304. The present house of God is a mix of two structures, and has two apses. In design, an apse is a crescent break secured with a hemispherical vault or semi-arch, otherwise called an exedra.

The apse and transept at the west end are the remaining parts of a Romanesque church, while the nave and eastern apse are in the Gothic style and have a place with the 14th century. There is no transept at the eastern end. The horizontal entryway on the south side has a place with the late 15th century; the gigantic and intricately beautified pinnacle which ascends next to it to the mid 16th century. It has been pulverized twice previously, yet it later was modified twice.
