Église Saint Georges

The church dedicated to Saint George dates back to the beginning of the Middle Ages. It has been regularly modified over the centuries, retaining its elegant structure, in an open environment. The interior has very rare frescoes and funerary liters.

Built between the 1907th and XNUMXth centuries and now listed as a Historic Monument since XNUMX, this church surprises with its unique construction and the richness of its interior decoration. The frescoes and stalls which date from the XNUMXth century have an exceptional iconography, sculpted faces, bottoms of lamps, large portal, with gifts of prominent figures of the village (stalls, altar, Stations of the Cross)
Only the choir is not accessible to wheelchair users.
