COUCOUON CHURCH

The church of Saint-Martin, founded in the 12th century, was badly damaged after the Revolution and was almost entirely rebuilt in 1854. Its porch, classified in 1907, is the only vestige of the Romanesque building. The church is famous for this porch where a representation of lust and slander would be represented through the sculpture of a woman with a monstrous head surrounded by snakes and birds. Note the signs of the zodiac on the stained glass window of its tympanum and one of the capitals. It can be reached from the square through pretty, well-preserved alleys.
