Chapelle Notre-Dame de la Haute-Ville

Mauléon-Licharre

This modest 14th-century chapel briefly served as a cathedral during the Wars of Religion. Inside, a five-tiered Baroque altarpiece and original stained glass reward the curious. Outside, look for the unusual stone grain measure: a reminder that Tuesday markets once flourished at its door.
