Discovery of a church, to admire its nave in the Angevin Gothic style, continuing with the elevated choir, and painted decorations

If your legs take you to the former court of justice of the church of Saint Radegonde, know that Radegonde was queen of the Franks, founder of the first monastery of nuns in Gaul and patron saint of the city. After entering through the church's Romanesque bell tower-porch, you will discover its nave in the Angevin Gothic style and continue through the raised choir with painted decorations dating from the 19th century before entering the crypt, consecrated in 1099, where the black marble sarcophagus of the saint is discovered.

J'aime à me rendre à cette petite église sans prétention, souvent déserte, qui abrite bien des trésors et offre une ambiance si singulière. Propice à la prière et à la méditation, cette charmante église offre également nombre d'ex-voto à lire et de tableaux à contempler.

petit église charmante abritant le tombeau de la Sainte, dont elle porte le nom, sous le Chœur. Elle mérite elle aussi d'être visitée.
The Sainte-Radegonde church is the apse of the cathedral. You will discover the facade of the church restored and opened in 2007. In the church, you advance in the nave and the chancel, the stairs and there, the tomb of saint Radegonde is located. This church is a jewel filled with good energy.
