Flamboyant Gothic church with granite altarpieces, miraculous statue and slate bell tower.

Situated at the foot of Fougères castle and listed as a Historic Monument, Saint-Sulpice church was founded in the 11th century and rebuilt in the 15th, 16th and 18th centuries. Built in the flamboyant Gothic style, it is one of the richest churches in Brittany. It features stained-glass windows by Fougerais master stained-glass artist Pierre Symon (16th century) and a nave framed like the hull of an overturned ship. Inside, two 15th-century granite altarpieces, Louis XV woodwork and a 13th-century miraculous statue of Notre-Dame-des-Marais. The pointed slate bell tower dates from the 15th century. A must-see!

Старая красивая церковь. Построена в стиле пламенеющей готики. Острые шпили, фантастические гаргульи под крышей, внутри так же сохранился дух Средневековья. Здесь находится старинная статуя Девы Марии XII века, которая после завоевания и сожжения Фужера, два века пролежала во рву под стенами замка, и была найдена только в XIV веке.
Витражи церкви так же очень впечатляют. На них прослеживается история статуи. Обязательно стоит зайти в эту церковь перед посещением замка, который находится рядом.

Igreja gótica começada a construir no séc. XVI e concluída no XVIII apresenta no seu interior alguns elementos de interesse. O destaque vai para os vitrais que preenchem todas as janelas. Mas também a capela-mor, a pia batismal e o púlpito merecem atenção.
