Saint Pierre of Caen
In the 12th century, the first Romanesque church was built. In the following century, the church was extended by six bays and ended with a flat chevet. A bell tower is also added. In the 14th century, the Romanesque nave was redone in a Gothic style. The facade was rebuilt and the bell tower was raised by the addition of an arrow. Later, in the 15th century, the collateral was enlarged as were the side chapels. The whole church is redesigned in a flamboyant Gothic style. At the end of the century, the flat chevet was replaced by an apse crowned by radiant chapels. In 1944, a shell fell on the bell tower collapsing on the nave.
