Culture
The history of Saint-Sauveur includes its church: in 1127, the Count of Toulouse handed it over to Saint-Sernin Abbey, which still had it under its jurisdiction at the end of the 17th century. The church has a single-nave layout, a semicircular apse and two side chapels, and was added to the supplementary list of historic monuments in 1979.
The local patronal festival of Saint-Sauveur continues to take place around 27 July. A building has been mentioned in the municipal registers for more than 300 years.
A particularly notable trace of the town's history is the stony meteorite that fell in Saint-Sauveur. Antoine Esculie, the owner of the field in question, immediately donated it to the Muséum d’Histoire Naturelle de Toulouse. A cast of the 1914 meteorite fall can be seen at Saint-Sauveur Town Hall.
Those who choose Saint-Sauveur as their destination can combine their stay with renting a holiday apartment.
