The Church of Saint-Aignan owes its name to the Bishop of Orleans around 400, when a pre-Romanesque church stood on the same site. Over the centuries, it was replaced by various other buildings, particularly those destroyed by fire. Saint-Aignan was the parish of the Counts of Blois and Chartres.

Easy and very beautiful hike following the river and pond; however, be careful at the roundabout on the way back to Lucé.

Unfortunately, the church was not accessible when I visited (mid-September 2024). You could only look in through a gate and the dance of death depictions on the left side were not really visible. In front of them were transparencies with skeleton drawings. Maybe those were the depictions...
