About the location

Chênehutte Notre Dame de la Prée
rue des bateliers chênehutte 49350
  • Maine-et-Loire
  • Pays de la Loire
Tufa church built in the 11th and 12th centuries. From this period date the apse, the bell tower and the side door. The square tower of the bell tower and its twin (twin) bays are typical of Romanesque art. The side door retains its triple archivolt decorated with water leaves and sawteeth. In 1837, following the regrouping of populations after the revolution, the Saumur architect Joly-Leterme made the enlargement of the church respecting the structure of the old building. The West door is dismantled stone by stone, then inserted into the new masonry. Its name comes from the fact that originally the Loire flowing further north, a meadow extended in front of it. The nave appears low because the ground has been aligned with the level of the road. The church has typical 19th century furniture. One can admire in the choir the two votive candles of sailors and perreyeurs.
