Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 September, open from 10am to 6pm.
Guided visit of the church, on Sundays, from 10am to 5pm by the association "safeguarding the heritage of Vieil-Baugé".
The church of Saint Symphorien has a twisted and bent bell tower. The reason for this twist is still mysterious. Different architectural periods compose this church, from the 11th to the 19th centuries. The choir is Plantagenet style and enjoys great clarity thanks to the three open chapels on each side.
The church of Saint Symphorien was built in the 11th century in a Romanesque style, on the remains of an even older church.
It then has a bell tower whose roof is made of stone but the latter collapses in the early nineteenth century.
A new bell tower is then built in the middle of the nineteenth century, helical style, like many in Anjou, but leaning what remains surprising.
Following the last restoration dating from the last quarter of the nineteenth century, the building keeps a choir and a chapel of the twelfth century, as well as two side chapels of the fifteenth century.
The church Saint Symphorien is classified in the inventory of historical monuments since 1973.
