As displayed through the martyrium and large ambulatory of five chapels sealed off during the 15th century, this structure was devoted to the worship of the relics of Saint-Aignan. This magnificent, half-underground crypt preserves several other wonders including the remarkable backdrop of pillar capitals which prefigure Roman art. Not to be missed.
