Saint-Trophime

Arles, France

The Church of St. Trophime (Trophimus) is a Roman Catholic church
and former cathedral built between the 12th century and the
15th century in the city of Arles, in the Bouches-du-Rhône
Department of southern France. The church is an important example
of Romanesque architecture, and the sculptures over the portal,
particularly the Last Judgement, and the columns in the adjacent cloister,
are considered some of the finest examples of Romanesque sculpture.

The church was built upon the site of the 5th century basilica of Arles,
named for St. Stephen
