Church of Saint-Leu-Saint-Gilles
Built in the 13th century, the church was partly destroyed during the English invasions and then rebuilt in the 15th century. Only the foundations of the bell tower remain from the 13th century. The facade would even date from the 16th century, with its Renaissance portal. The building was consolidated in the 19th century by a major restoration operation.
About this building
The church has a Latin cross plan, with pointed arches along the entire length of the nave and aisles. An exceptional high altar in the neo-classical style is located at the level of the choir. A lateral bell tower is built to the south of the front façade, topped by a slate spire. The roof is double-pitched for the main vessel, terraced for the aisles (with a balustrade at the top of the drip walls). The infilled bays have a relatively sober profile in Gothic style.
