HOLY CROSS CHURCH
Romanesque-Gothic hall church, with a central nave forming the choir, and remarkable furnishings and statues
The Sainte-Croix church dates back to the 13th century. Legend has it that it was built on the spot where a pilgrim returning from Jerusalem with a fragment of the true Cross rested. This Romanesque-Gothic church has three naves and three bays, and boasts a remarkable treasure trove of 21 reliquaries: statuettes, crosses and reliquary arms, ciboria, monstrances... You can admire the different construction of its portals (13th-century north portal typically Limousin, modern west portal), the furniture and the stone Virgin of Pity.
