According to legend, the church of Notre-Dame du Taur, Toulouse, was built on the exact spot where the body of Saint Saturnin (Sernin), patron saint of Toulouse, became detached from the bull that dragged the martyr to his death. The church stands in the rue du Taur between the Capitole and the Basilica of St. Sernin,[1] and has been classified as a historic monument since 1840.
