June 9, 2025, Église Saint Martin

This church is Romanesque in style (12th or 13th century) and was renovated during the Gothic period. Thus, on one side of the nave, there are semicircular arches and on the other, pointed arches. The bell tower dates from the 18th century. The church has a massed plan. The chevet is flat. The sacristy is attached to the chevet. The square bell tower, topped with an octagonal dome, is located on the south facade. On one side of the nave, there are bays. The portal opens under the bell tower. It is decorated with an ogee arch and a coat of arms.

The Chapitrel is the name given to the entrance gate. The period door is in the Renaissance style. This construction had several functions: It was reserved for catechumens who were not allowed to enter the church and served as a warehouse for farmers who sold at the market on Sunday mornings. The saddleback tower dates from 1545. It is 28 m high. It is square and has four levels. Each floor is separated by an external Roussard belt called a "larmier" which overhangs quite widely, preventing water from running off. At the top of the roof are two granite crosses, each topped with a copper weather vane representing a crowned dragon's head.

This neo-Gothic style church saw its first stone laid on July 6, 1880 and was consecrated in 1883. It replaced an old church which dated from the Middle Ages and which was considered too small for masses.

Saint Martin would be the equivalent of a rock star from the end of Antiquity. It’s crazy that no one knows who he is anymore.
