EGLISE SAINT-ANDRE

Built between the 12th and 14th centuries, Marseillette's parish church can now only be visited from the outside. Its architecture combines rib and barrel vaults, with an exposed timber frame and a beautiful bell tower wall on the outside (the bell tower was built on the west façade in 1874). Most of the church was rebuilt in the 18th or 19th century in the Romanesque style. The windows are very recent as the small old windows were blocked up. Restoration work in 1953 brought to light many original features which decorated the church. At the back, two paintings by Jacques Gamelin depict the life of Saint-André. If you cannot see inside, the magnificent panorama of the Aude plain and the Alaric massif from the square at the entrance is worth seeing.
