The 12th-century church stands on the ruins of the Roman city of Juliobriga, vying for the same piece of land. The apse has three semicircular windows (the central one on columns with carved capitals) and very deteriorated corbels. The doorway is very simple and small with plain archivolts, but above it there is a relocated tympanum with figures of animals and angels. The belfry of three campaigns has an external access staircase that culminates in a small platform with good views.

Beautiful church on the remains of the Roman forum of Juliobriga. Its necropolis and the ovens used to create the bells are preserved

Highly recommended place (reproduction of a Pompeii villa), very competent, friendly and detailed guides. With children it is interesting.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
