Rising to a height of almost 40 m, the church gave many a curious visitor an unobstructed view of the city

The history of this church, listed as a Monument Historique, dates back to 1068. It is not yet the edifice that rises into the Oléron sky, but a chapel of which all that remains is a column and the bases of an arch. After being looted and destroyed, the church was rebuilt in 1606. Its octagonal bell tower was rebuilt at the end of the 18th century under the reign of Louis XVI. At almost 40 m high, it has long served as a landmark for sailors.

Eglise de Saint-Pierre-D'Oléron 17310
L'Eglise de Saint-Pierre-d'Oléron est une belle et plutôt grande église située en centre ville dans une rue piétonne. Elle est claire et lumineuse, avec de très beaux vitraux aux motifs aussi bien classiques que plus modernes, de grands tableaux magnifiques même si certains sont un peu sombres et des Stations du Christ également très belles. Le chœur est également de toute beauté. Mais c'est son clocher octogonal très original qui a en premier attiré mon attention. Cette église vaut largement la visite.

Très jolie église, lumineuse et présentant des vitraux aux motifs modernes avec des couleurs chatoyantes, de belles pierres... elle vaut le coup d'oeil. Elle se situe dans l'une des rues piétonnes très commerçante de la ville, à côté d'une boulangerie qui a du succès (file d'attente impressionnante)...
