San Sebastián d'Annappes, whose 15th-century Halle church appearance, sits in the heart of the Annappes district and is a landmark for many residents of the area. This building, of which parts of the structure of the nave date back to the 13th century, is mainly composed of white stones whose walls are pierced to the south by high 16th century windows. The church was remarkably restored in 2012 by the architect Etienne Sintive. Inside, discover its sacred art furniture, wood or stone sculptures, and two altarpieces, including the one in the south chapel, which gives a glimpse of a copy of Raphael’s famous painting Sainte Famille.
