2009-10-05 Paulnay, église Saint-Étienne, Indre Centre, Indre Centre

            No idea what kind of creature this is, a snail, a marine animal? But he is beautiful and he he radiates dignity. May be a harpy
Church of Saint-Étienne
Built in the 12th century in the purest Romanesque Poitevin, it is notable for its magnificent facade decorated with sculptures (plant motifs, sirens and birds mingle around the entrance) and frescoes that are striking in their color instense (Christ in Majesty). The site dates back to an earlier era Paulnay in the Middle Ages, in fact during excavations, were the foundations of a Roman temple discovered and funerals, the oldest dating from the Merovingian period, as evidenced by the two presentations on the sarcophagi parvis.Un small document available in the church you will discover the best.
