Why Cathédrale Saint-Sauveur d'Aix matters

Saint-Sauveur mixes Roman, Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque elements, because it was built, rebuilt and extended over centuries. The cloister is quiet and a good place to pause. Look for the old baptistery and the cloister, both quiet and full of carved stone details.
