Église Saint-Georges

The Church of St. George, listed as a historical monument, is located in Vinneuf, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region. From its original construction in the twelfth or thirteenth century, only the Romanesque portal remains. Its bell tower was built in a defensive style in the fourteenth century; the "imperial" dome dates from the 16th and 17th centuries. The building houses remarkable furniture including a sixteenth century altarpiece retracing, in 12 bas-reliefs, the life of Saint George.

Located in Dollot in the Yonne, the Saint Germain church dates from the 12th century, but was largely rebuilt in the 16th century. The building thus has both traces of a very distant past and elements of construction over the following centuries. The church also has interesting furniture, part of which is listed as a Historic Monument.

A primitive building was located at the present location of the cathedral (6th-7th century). In 1122, the architect Henri Sanglier began the reconstruction of the Carolingian cathedral to build one of the first Gothic buildings. The church was consecrated in 1164 by the Pope. The building was completely completed at the end of the 13th century. Chapels were added in the 13th and 14th centuries, then a transept in the 15th and 16th centuries.
