Church of Saint-Eloi
Restored for nearly twenty years by the association of the Institute of the Good Shepherd in Bordeaux, which has occupied the premises since 2002, this church, of which only the facade is visible on the street, has a colourful decor and a warm and pious atmosphere, rendered in particular by the stained glass windows of the choir. It also benefits from a choice location, as it is in the middle of a historic district of Bordeaux.
About this building
Church of the late Gothic period, comprising a main nave, a single aisle and showing traces of numerous modifications and revisions. The thrust of the vaults is maintained, inside, by buttresses whose projection forms a series of side chapels. Liernes vaults and star-shaped ribs. The apse is pierced with mullioned windows and embroidery. To the right of the apse stands a bell tower. The western façade is pierced by three identical portals, only one of which is contemporary to the church, the other two having been rebuilt in 1828, as well as the upper part.
