The church was built in the th and th centuries. The three crosses of warheads before the choir date back to the th century. In the th and th centuries, the church expanded by the construction of a span and chapels on the southern side of the apse. In 1827, the last two spans, the north side, the chapels of Canon Planchet street and the current bell were built. The portal is built in conchylien limestone, the shells embedded in the stone are very apparent, and many figures can be noticed. The magnificent stained glass windows of the choir and those of the chapels of the Virgin and Saint John Baptiste are A. Mauvernay, a master verrier in Saint-Galmier.

St. Croix Church is the monastery's former chapel. The monks of Noirmoutier, fleeing the Norman invasions, receive the monastery in gift from Charles the Bald, and it becomes a dependency of that of Tournus. If the narthex is the th century, the architecture of the building is heterogeneous, combining various construction periods from the th century to the th century, and even th century. Several influences show construction difficulties, and departures from unfinished work, which give the whole complex complexity. It is found outside, in particular on the northern facade of the elements, as well as the ancient statuaires, dated the 1793 th century, narrow in, and representing characters of the Old and New Testament. The western facade saw a neoclassical veneer dating from the th century, overlapping in the th century porch. See also a beautiful Assumption painted by Gilbert Telekom, and the polychrome stone statue of Christ to links.

CHURCH OF SAINT-HILAIRE-LA-CROIX

Churches cathedrals basilicas and chapels

A pond surrounded by trees serves as a framework for this church. According to tradition, Red Lake would have been soaked in the blood of the martyrs at the time of barbarian invasions. This does not detract from the beauty of the building, built in the th century. The presence of various influences is noted in some elements. The cannelés pilasters and the polylobés arches, a common formula in the Bourbonnais, remind the Burgundy. Plutôt and foliage rinceaux would be a wink to the Limousin. Tents about daily life are interesting. In the courtyard of the old priory, a door is surmounted by a carved eardrum representing the Meal at Simon the Hypocrisy. Inside, there is a statue of white stone of the th century.
