Description

The pride of the village is its restored parish church, situated next to a Protestant temple that has been converted into a residence. The Romanesque choir is crowned with a beautiful lauze roof. Inside, the church conceals 600m2 of frescoes covering the entire wall. A magnificent Romanesque fresco portraying Christ in majesty and the four evangelists embellishes the cul-de-four. The nave was adorned in the 18th century with calligraphic motifs, resembling a tapestry. It is accompanied by hangings and draperies in the Gothic chapel painted by the priest in the 19th century.
Visits are available by appointment on Friday afternoons from 2 pm to 6 pm.
