Lombers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lombers is a village and commune in the French département of Tarn, a part of the ancient Languedoc province and the present-day Midi-Pyrénées région.
Lombers was a significant centre of Catharism in the late 12th and early 13th centuries. It was the location of a Catholic-Cathar debate, perhaps in the 1180s, between Guillaume Peyre de Brens, Catholic bishop of Albi, and Sicard le Cellerier, Cathar bishop of Albi; Sicard lived at Lombers.[1]
