Church of Saint-Etienne

The Church of Saint-André, listed as a Historical Monument, is located in Montgiscard, in the Midi-Pyrénées region. Built in the 13th century and rebuilt in the 14th century after having been set on fire, the church has a four-span nave with a one-span choir and a five-sided chevet. Two aisles, each with three chapels, frame the nave. Note the wall-tower rebuilt in 1890 with machicolation, six bays and two corner turrets.

The Saint Eloi church is located in Le Salvetat-Lauragais in Haute-Garonne. Erected in the center of the village, this former priory became a parish church and is surrounded by a cemetery. It was built in the sixteenth century, on foundations of a fifteenth century building. The church, with walls of shale rubble and pink bricks, has a nave closed by a choir with three sides. A bell tower is surmounted by a hexagonal turret, topped by a slate steeple.

The church is in the typical style of the region, not failing to embellish the landscape with the red brick that makes it up. The eight-century old building also has the particularity of having a carillon with 14 bells since 1844.
