St Michel Abbey Church, Nantua
De Groene Gids
De beoordeling van de Michelin Gids
This abbey, Abbatiale St Michel, is the most important Romanesque building in the Ain. It has an ornate 19C bell tower and houses the vestiges of a Benedictine abbey (12C), which was destroyed during the Revolution. Inside: the Chapelle St Anne (16C) with its Renaissance vault embellished with a superb network of arcatures; the fine altar with marble angels, in the chancel; the magnificent Martyrdom of St Sebastian by Eugène Delacroix. An odd detail: the pillars in the nave that splay into a basket-handle arch.
