Béziers - "Journée du Patrimoine"

World Heritage day

Had a couple of friends visiting me from the Channel Islands - so I did not take many photos.

Then started to head up to the Market Hall for lunch.

Called into this Church of the "Penitants Blue" on the way - as one enters, look up to the Right - there is a large model of a traditional "Languedoc Man of War" from the 17th Century - created by the boat builder of the actual boat.

I have never understood why it has found a home in a church in the middle of Béziers !
