Sarlat Panoramic Lift, Sarlat-la-Caneda

The glass lift with panoramic views, housed within the old Church Sainte-Marie’s bell tower offers a unique experience. Once at the top, the lift, whose walls are made entirely of glass, allows you a 360° view of Sarlat.

The church of Sainte Marie was built in 1385 and was transformed in 1905 into a post office. It was transformed once again in 1935 and served as a health center. Later abandoned, the municipality asked architect Jean Nouvel to renovate the building. In 2000, he created two giant steel doors which restore all the scale in the nave by restoring its volume and opening the triumphant arch which formerly overlooked the choir.
