Classified as a Historical Monument in 1841, the Church of Sainte-Foy, built in the heart of the historical capital of Béarn, features very beautiful sculpted capitals in the choir, including the beheading of Saint Foy, and the "piton de Jaca," an architectural motif found on pilgrimage paths. The Romanesque portal, modified in the 19th century, has originals that are on display in the exhibition room of the Tourist Office. As for the remarkable original of the tympanum, it can be found in the chapel of the Blessed Bernard. The set of 10 stained glass windows was made by Mauméjean (1869).
