A 12th-century bell tower and porch unique in Mayenne

The façade of St Pierre's features a 12th-century bell tower crowned by a pyramid-shaped stone roof.
In the nave, the walls bear 16th-century murals. This series of panels dedicated to the saints reflects the religious fervour of the local people at the time.

A remarkable 13th-century Saint-Christophe was recently discovered inside the bell tower-porch.
