            Fortified church of St Privat des Pres in Saint-Privat-des-Prés
The heart of a region rich in Romanesque churches, the St Privat is required by its large 
dimensions. This large stone vessel is decorated on its sides by a succession 
of arcades with its beautiful Romanesque windows. A magnificent portal Saintonge style 
adorns the west front. Impressive fortifications decorate the top of the side walls. 
well Romanesque church dates from the twelfth century. In the thirteenth it is attached to the Templar Commandery Aubeterre. Religious wars have caused him to lose his tower and arches had to be redone in 1651. Classified as a historical monument in 1862 it enjoyed in 1997 a complete renovation of the west facade which suddenly does not seem so old. Corbels were carved on this occasion inspired by local models.
