The construction of the cathedral lasted from 1404 until the 17th century.
In the chapel of the choir is kept the holy bridle (Saint-Mors), the most important relic of the city.
Worth seeing is furthermore the south portal, held in flamboyant style. The "Porte Juive", where once "converted" Jews went trough to be baptised in the cathedral.
There is a Roman triumphal arch from the 1st century, which shows a well-preserved illustration of two Celtic warriors on the north side of the cathedral.
