Church with a real treasure of ecclesiastical furniture in Malestroit.

Dating from the 12th, 13th, 15th and 16th centuries, this church has two parallel naves and a real treasure trove of ecclesiastical furniture. On the south façade there is a carved ox, a reminder of the animal that, after its owner prayed to Saint Gilles, got up from a fall and continued on his way, pulling the cart that had lost a wheel. Inside, there are admirable 15th century stained glass windows and polychrome statues. During a restoration in 2011, exceptional paintings, probably from the 13th century, were discovered on the vault.

Jolie chaire et des vitraux magnifiques.
Dés l'entrée dans l'édifice, on s'y sent bien, église charmante.
