Abstract

During the programmed excavation carried in 2005 on the spot of the former baptistry at Limoges, a vast and atypical building has been discovered. It consisted in a hexagonal room of more than 10 m diameter, in which a circular pool and six quadrangular rooms around it were built, opened towards the central hexagon. The entrance was situated west. During the early Middle Age, it was converted into a church and a semi-circular apse was added at the eastern end. The whole building at last has been entirely dismantled at the end of the 12th c. or early 13th c. and a small parish church has been established.
