Description
Called "the Templars" (actually Hospitallers of St John of Jerusalem), the church of St. Andrew was built in the xii th and xiii th centuries. In the xiv th century, the Hospitallers of Saint John of Jerusalem built walls around the church to protect the inhabitants of Luz from attacks by Spanish bandits called 'irregulars'. At that time, a large ditch surrounded the church, crossed by a drawbridge. A few years later, the chapel Notre-Dame-de-la-Pitié was built inside the ramparts to ask God to put an end to an epidemic of black plague which devastated the country Toy around 1650. In 1865, a new door was added to facilitate entry. [Source Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luz-Saint-Sauveur).
