Mairie de Pacé (Orne)

The church of Saint-Pierre de Pacé has a rectangular plan, to which is added, during the fourteenth century, a tower finished by a built roof and pierced by four narrow trilobed bays. The north chapel was built in the fifteenth century and, like the tower or nave, has an uncovered gable (trace of an old thatched or branching roof) adorned on the ridge with a simple granite cross. The sacristy was not added until the 19th century. The tower became a porch and main entrance in the 19th century to replace a north side entrance once provided with an awning. Some elements in the architecture to be detected: - Building materials: granite rubble, limestone and brown schist (ferruginous). Visible on the south exterior wall of the nave: - Arrangement of the stones in fishbone (opus spicatum). Visible on the north exterior wall of the nave: - traces of the old canopy and the first entrance of the church, removed to restore two windows in the nave (semicircular arch framed by two windows). The nave consists of three bays and has a panelled ceiling that was remodeled in the first half of the 17th century. Only the structure seems to date from the 14th century. The paving of the nave was done in the 18th century. In the choir: High altar with its altarpiece with triangular pediment, carved wood, painted and gilded, 19th century, its canvas of the nativity, and its statues of Saint-Pierre and Saint-Latuin, polychrome wood, folk art. In the nave, western facade: - painting of the Holy Family, oil on canvas, 17th century, - two stained glass windows dedicated to Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes, late 19th century.
