The 12th century Romanesque cathedral was largely reworked by Paul Abadie in 1852-75. In 2008, Jean-Michel Othoniel was commissioned by DRAC Aquitaine - Limousin - Poitou-Charentes to display the Treasure of the Cathedral in some of its rooms, which opened to the public on 30th September 2016. The cement floor tiles made by MiraColour and the hand printed wallpaper by Atelier d’Offard, both use interlacing patterns reminiscent of the Neo-Romanesque period of the 19th century.
