À propos du lieu

Église Saint-Pierre

Rue de l'église Saint-Pierre, 33670 La Sauve

Gironde
Nouvelle-Aquitaine

The Church of Saint-Pierre de la Sauve Majeure (13th/ 16th century) is a UNESCO World Heritage Site under the Ways of Saint-Jacques. It is a jewel, the legacy of cathedral builders. It is beautifully decorated with murals and preserves the relics of Saint Gerard. The history of Saint Peter’s Church is intimately linked to that of the Benedictine Abbey founded by Saint Gerard. It is built in the middle of a raised cemetery, bounded by 3 Gothic crosses of the sixteenth century.
