The Romanesque church of Saint-Pierre was built at the end of the 11th century. Its long and narrow nave is decorated with a cornice with sculpted modillions. It stands in the center of the old cemetery where one can observe surprising trestle tombs, arranged like dolmens. The portal dates from the end of the 11th century. An 18th century mural painting represents the symbol of the Holy Spirit, surrounded by cherubs. Not to be missed: the semi-circular apse and its modillions with obscene subjects
Those who are interested in religious architecture can also discover the Saint-Nicolas de Civray church nearby.
