    A touch of the Sistine Chapel in the heart of Toulouse. The Carmelite Chapel is a magnificent place. Discovered by chance during my strolls, I was left speechless by the Baroque paintings covering its ceilings and walls. Works mainly by Jean-Pierre Rivalz and Jean-Baptiste Despax depict scenes from the Carmelite order. A must-see!
