ST. CYBARD'S CHURCH

The small church Saint-Cybard is looking forward to its elegant clocher in pine apple. The Roman chevet is built on a crypt, and the facade, festonnée of three floors of arcatures, rises to the rays of the sunset sun. Inside, the stylized foliage and sculpted faces of the modillons bear the imprint of the Hispanic-Moorish art. A crypt with a low vault occupies all the space under the choir. The single nave is covered with a broken cradle vault and a faux dome. There is a small mystery: the rounding of the apse of the apse is pierced with a slightly décalé oculus to the northeast. On the day of St. Cybard, on July 1, a rising sun beam penetrates through this small hole and crosses the church in its axis. In the village it was said that the light-cast was struck by a statue or image wisely placed on that day in the choir. The church is often open, if not ask the key to the town hall. Inside, the stylized foliage and sculpted faces of the modillons bear the imprint of the Hispanic-Moorish art. At the foot of the hill, which serves as a seat in the village, the countryside deploys its grain fields and wooded horizons.
