This church has all the purity and simplicity of Romanesque churches.

A former possession of the Abbey of Déols, until 1269 it housed the relics of the monk Saint Cyran, founder of the Brenne abbeys. Close to Château Naillac, it overlooks the Creuse River. It has all the purity and simplicity of a Romanesque church: a rectangular nave, a straight choir, a square bell tower and a tiled roof. The interior is light and airy, and its elevation is striking. On the west wall is a painting illustrating the Dit des trois morts et des trois vifs. This theme can also be found at Prissac and Chavin in the Indre department.

Eglise Saint-Cyran 36300 Le Blanc
L'Eglise Saint-Cyran est située dans la ville haute du Blanc, à proximité immédiate du Château Naillac. Cette église n'est en réalité accessible que s'il y a une exposition. Le jour de ma visite, elle abritait l'exposition « La Vigne au Pays », une exposition très intéressante faite de photographies et de témoignages. Il y avait également un pressoir itinérant du début du 20ème siècle ainsi qu'un alambic datant des années 1960. Une très belle visite ! Depuis l'Eglise Saint-Cyran, l'extérieur offre un beau point de vue sur le ville ainsi qu'une vue partielle du Viaduc.
