Another church in Toulouse

This is a church called Les Jacobins, built soon after St Sernin. The columns are meant to represent palm trees; I found myself wondering whether the builder had been to the Mezquita in Cordoba. The columns there are meant to give the impression of walking under palms, and the use of different coloured stone is very similar.

The tomb of St Thomas Aquinas is here; it is modern, only dating from 1974. St Thomas was at this church from shortly after his death, until the French Revolution, when he was moved and the building taken over by the army. He was brought back in 1974, which was the 700th anniversary of his death.
