Former church of Saint-Laurent, deconsecrated in 1983 after excavations uncovered more than 1,500 burials and nearly two millennia of funerary use. Reopened in 2011 beneath a glass-and-steel canopy, the site allows visitors to descend into the crypt of Saint-Oyand, a rare surviving example of early medieval architecture in Europe.
