Église Saint-Symphorien

Place Paul Bert, 37100 Tours, France

Indre-et-Loire

Centre-Val de Loire

The church belongs to three periods: the choir and the bridge that precedes it are the remains of the old Romanesque church from the 12th century, the nave and the aisles were built in the 15th century, the west facade and its portal are from the 16th century. The plan is irregularly shaped. The primitive church was to present a rectangle terminated by a polygonal apse, without transept. In the 15th century, it was enlarged by one span. The ground level of the 12th century was raised at that time. New extensions were carried out in the 16th century, starting from the transept: the second span was added, the rest of the aisle was built a little later, at the same time as the south transept. The portal, dating from 1567, is a Renaissance work: a large semicircular arch framing a double window with flamboyant prismatic mullions, two low-lowered arched doors, separated by the symbolic pillar, three statues on their canopy.
