The Church of Saint-Pierre in Gigors-et-Lozeron is the church of a priory that had been under the control of the Abbey of Cluny since the 12th century. It consists of a single nave with three bays and a vault restored in the 15th century. The unevenness of the terrain allows for a symbolic progression within the building. From the central nave, a few steps lead to the projecting transept, which opens onto a choir bay and three semicircular apses. Inside and out, the structure, made from small limestone quarry, is uniform and orderly. Tuff is used for the bay windows and upper parts. Built on a hill, the church appears massive from the outside. The north wall is flanked by a square bell tower from the 15th century. The apse of the central apse is supported by two buttresses. Finally, the church had to be connected to the priory's monastic buildings to the south (a blocked door). The cemetery has been archaeologically documented since the 11th century. An 11th-century inscription in the western bay recalls that its foundation was the work of Lord Berengar and his son Irpin. The church is currently being restored.
