Review & FAQ:

In keeping with the rules of poverty associated with the Jacobin order, the Convent des Jacobins is an austere and un-fussy building in the center of Toulouse. The exterior of the church is devoid of any decoration or statues. The entire building was constructed using bricks and was built between 1230 and 1350. The structure is considered to be a jewel of medieval architecture and is another must-see attraction for all history and architecture enthusiasts. Despite the rather drab exterior, the interior of the church is surprisingly light and benefits from Gothic-inspired tall windows and intricate vaults. Visitors are invited to step inside and join a guided tour to learn all about the fascinating history of the convent and the Jacobin order.
