ESLEY CRYPT

The columns occupying the central area of the crypt are overcome with cubic double-ring capitals and exgrowth at angles You can also observe two religious sculptures: a Saint André polychrome of the XIV century and a Virgin to the Child. You can also admire the three original Romanesque altars as well as a sixteenth century vat. This crypt consists of two arched vaults and a central nef. A fine example of Romanesque art in the heart of the Vosges.
