À propos du lieu

Église Saint Germain

1 place Saint-Germain, 89433 Vault-de-Lugny

Yonne
Bourgogne-Franche-Comté

The beautiful Saint-Germain church (15th and 16th centuries) houses a magnificent 16th century fresco of very large size (65 m) adorning the entire upper part of the nave and choir and representing the 14 stations of the Passion of Christ. The church has preserved a painted wooden cross Christ of the sixteenth century, two meters high. The ground is paved with beautiful tombstones before 1750\. The altar and pulpit, in soft stone, richly carved, in the Gothic Revival style, were made by the sculptor Guillaumet in 1878\. The stained glass windows date from the restoration of the church at the end of the 19th century but their fine structure, older, seems to wave like flames. For more details, you will meet the enthusiasts of the association of Friends of the Church during the glass of friendship that will follow the concert!
