Church of Saint-Jacques-le-Majeur
Courcelles, FR
Founded in the twelfth century, the Church of Saint-Jacques-le-Majeur de Courcelles could be called a ‘trundle’ church because it is characterized by the juxtaposition of an old church partially enlarged in 1604, a monumental unfinished choir (1415) and a chapel (1656). Behind the banal 19th century facade century hides high quality furniture: baptismal font, a seventeenth century altarpiece and a magnificent Louis XIV style font of the same period.
