Travel Guide Massels

This small town has two Romanesque churches: Saint-Pierre and Sainte-Quitterie. Petit Futé recommends that you take a look at the latter. Like all treasures, Sainte-Quitterie knows how to make itself desired. A guide may be necessary to go there. St. Quiteria had dedicated her virginity to Christ and refused to marry. She was beheaded by her father. This Romanesque church overlooks the valley. You can admire its paintings from the end of the 15th century, which are now reappearing after several years of restoration. The process used is that of tempera painting. Several scenes from the life of Jesus are told there.
