The Notre Dame du Puy cathedral, in Grasse dates from the 11th century and extended in the 17th century. It was built in honour of Honorat d'Arles (saint Honorat) with a nave 55m long and walls about 2m thick. Attached to the church is a 34m high bell tower containing 7 bells. Inside Notre-Dame-du-Puy de Grasse are three magnificent paintings by Rubens, the 'Washing of Feet' by Fragonard and other works by various artists including Negro Charles, Gaillard and Sébastien Bourdon.
