The most beautiful religious buildings Argenton-Sur-Creuse

The chapel, which dominates the entire city with its monumental golden statue, is visible by far. It was originally the chapel of the medieval castle. Destroyed, reconstructed, diminished, she finally was rehabilitated at the end of the nineteenth century and was the subject of a pilgrimage, in memory of the epidemic of plague of 1630. She always extends his right arm onto the city, the left behind the child Jesus. The climb to the chapel requires an effort, but it is rewarded with a splendid view of the city and Creuse.

Dating from the beginning of the fifteenth century, the church was largely restored in the nineteenth century in the neo-Gothic style. We admire his high arrow added and the arch of the edges of his nef. Located in the city center, in the pedestrian street, it is the only place of worship of the inhabitants. It is also open for concerts. The choir was adorned with beautiful windows of the nineteenth century, carried out by the atelier Charles Lévêque de Beauvais (the same workshop worked for the church of Prissac).

The graceful chapel was built at the end of the fifteenth century. In front of you, you can admire a beautiful door consisting of arches that go from colonnades to torsado, and depreciate into a flowered rod. The bell again is also worth a look. The chapel is used today for exhibitions and concerts, especially in the beautiful season. We have a beautiful view on the graceful side from the other shore of Creuse.
