Le Trésor de la Cathédrale

The artist JM Othoniel signs the staging of the Treasure where the blown and colored glass is put at the service of a spectacular work. Course on two floors (39 steps). Programming service Country of Art and History.

Colored blown glass, the artist's favorite material which makes up most of his creations with magical and baroque accents, is at the heart of the Angoumois project. The stained glass windows in blue and gold tones diffuse a colored light which contributes to the dreamlike atmosphere of the place.
Each room of the Treasure corresponds to a theme: the Lapidary, the Commitment, the Marvelous.

The design of the scenography of the Treasury was entrusted by the State – Ministry of Culture and Communication to visual artist Jean-Michel Othoniel, as part of a public order on February 10, 2010.
Saint-Pierre d'Angoulême Cathedral is a building protected as a Historic Monument (classified on the 1840 list) belonging to the State.
