St. Bertrand Des Comminges, Interior

More of the cathedral St. Bertrand des Comminges...

Interior, nave, ceiling, part of screen

The organ; we enjoyed a bit of a rehearsal
before being hustled out for noon closing

Stuffed crocodile on the wall, one of nine in
France (many more in Spain); remnant of
Crusades, pilgrimages; it's a long story

Choir exterior

In the Gothic part, assorted bays and chapels

Altar, above it the tomb of St. Bertrand (Bernard)

Tomb of St. Bernard; OK, I am presently not clear on which
St. B this was...the one with the dog, the one with the pass,
the one who preached the Crusades, the one whose niece
was Heloise...; ANSWER: none of the above

Interesting graffiti in the passage-way for us pilgrims to
admire St. B

Inside the choir, looking east toward the bow

Looking west toward the stern

Up closer of the nice locally-done carving
