Church of St. Martin - Champniers

Church whose apse and choeur are romanesque.  Curious wall paintings of the 15th C.  A peculiar single arched bell gable surmounts the church. The transcept and chancel are the oldest parts of the building dating from the 12th century. Saint Martin's Church has a collection of  pictures dating from the end of the Gothic period. Two tombstones next to the church come from the ancient cemetery.

Also to see: the ceremonial cross in the centre of the cemetery and the Vieux Cormenier Museum.

Nearby : la Valleé des Singes (The Valley of the Monkeys)
