ST. GENES CHURCH
Discover Saint-Genès church, a Romanesque jewel of Berry, illuminated in the evening, a must-see on the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela!
It put Châteaumeillant on the map throughout France and Europe. The dimensions of Saint-Genès, 52 m long and over 13 m wide, make it an important church. Built around 1150 of Saulzais stone, it has stood the test of time without significant alteration. Alongside Fontgombault and Neuvy-Saint-Sépulcre, it is one of Berry's leading Romanesque sanctuaries. Like the church of Notre-Dame-la-Petite, it is beautifully illuminated at night. A must-see on your way to Santiago de Compostela!
