SAINT-MARCEL CHURCH
One of the most remarkable churches of the Bas-Berry, composed today of a single nave in Saint-Marcel.
It's one of the most remarkable of the Lower Berry. You can see by far its square tower covered with shingles. Founded in the eleventh century, it is now composed of a unique nef, an abbey and two absidioles, a crypt and a fortified bell tower of the XIV century. Its chapels date from the fifteenth century, and its double-archivolte gateway is XII. The western carved portal and the nef capitals are interesting, as well as the whole nineteenth century stalemate, to the happy mercy. The church treasure contains very beautiful limousine enamels.
