The Cathedral of Sainte-Cecile is located in the small town of Albi, after which the "Albigensians" got their name - a heretical Christian movement, since one of the centers of their movement was located there. Its peculiarity is the strict appearance of the military fortress contrasting with its rich interior decoration. It is included in the list of historical monuments and is marked by UNESCO. In the cathedral there is a large organ with huge dimensions (16 by 15 meters), made in the 18th century and richly decorated.→
