The most beautiful religious buildings Sark

The island's parish church was built in 1820. Tapestries on the walls depict the island's history. The cushions on the pews, representing the coats of arms of the island's families, were embroidered by the local women. The stained glass windows depict various saints. Among them is Saint Magloire, who came from Dol-de-Bretagne in 565 to establish a monastery on Sark. The monastery housed up to sixty monks, who ran a school for the children of the Breton nobility. The Vikings destroyed the monastery and killed the monks in the 9th^century .
