Narbonne Cathedral , Narbonne, France

Narbonne Cathedral (Cathédrale Saint-Just-et-Saint-Pasteur de Narbonne) is a famous cathedral of the South. The construction began in 1272, the choir was finished in 1332, but work was later halted many times and it remains unfinished. It was dedicated to the two Saints Justus and Pastor and was the seat of the Archbishop of Narbonne until the Archbishopric was merged into the Diocese of Carcassonne under the Concordat of 1801. The sundial in the garden to the left was added recently.
