Martin M. Miles' photos with the keyword: Lisle-sur-Tarn

The history of Lisle-sur-Tarn begins with the destruction of the fortified village of Montaigu by Simon de Montfort's troops during the Albigensian Crusade. After 1229, with the approval and support of Raymond VII de Toulouse, a new "bastide" was created to house the former inhabitants of Montaigut and to respond to the increase in population. A bull of Pope Nicholas IV from 1291 grants an indulgence of 405 days to those who visit the Church of Notre-Dame de Lisle on certain feast days. Notre-Dame de la Jonquière is a 13th and14th-centuryy Tolosan Gothic-style brick building with three naves. The high - initially square, then octagonal - west tower with a pointed helmet does not correspond to the building traditions of the Midi, in which crossing towers and not west towers are in the foreground. After 1271, the year in which the former county of Toulouse was incorporated into the French crown domain, building ideas from the north were also adopted in the south of France.

Parts of the portal are obviously older than the church. They may come from a Romanesque building.
