Flamboyant Gothic church, one of the most beautiful in the region.

Built of granite, the church is in the Flamboyant Gothic style. The dates of its construction (1471-1518) are engraved on the lintel of the south portal, which is the most richly decorated. The building is one of the most beautiful churches in the region. On the façade, the upper part of the tower dates from the Renaissance period. Inside, an impression of verticality predominates. A curiosity: during Holy Week, the bells do not ring. In Ambert, the coraire, from the top of the terrace, uses his megaphone to call the faithful to the services of Good Friday and Holy Saturday.

I saw it several times and I always dazzled by the architecture of the place as much outside than inside and by the serenity of the places I also like to stroll through the narrow streets to see the old houses
