Chapel of Prigny

Highlight • Religious Site

Prigny, is actually the old village of Moutiers-en-Retz, and this chapel was the first church of Moutiers, because until the end of the Middle Ages, Moutiers were only a simple suburb of Prigny. Located on the former shore of the Gulf of Machecoul, Prigny was then a fortified town overlooking the Breton marshes.
This building is now called a chapel by the inhabitants, simply because of its small size. Dating from the 11th century, the chapel of Prigny is a squat building in the primitive Romanesque style.
It is currently the subject of a restoration program.

Beautiful landscape around the Passage du Gois (Vendée; France). Not only the passage itself is worth a journey, but also the small harbors in the vicinity.

Slightly massive in appearance and built in the 14th century, the Bouin church dominates the marsh with its silhouette and can be seen from afar. Formerly belonging to the Marches de Bretagne, the town of Bouin offers a different architecture with its stone houses.

I took advantage of this mild weather to travel through the northern Vendée. The very exposed roads are more pleasant in light winds 😜
Chilly start, but what a pleasure to have had this sun 🌞
