Romanesque church fortified in the 14th century during the Hundred Years' War. The bell tower is imposing, and the oldest parts are located at the base of the side walls, the semicircular apse, and the façade. The rectangular bell tower is pierced by two lintel openings on each side. Powerful buttresses surround the building; one of the two on the façade is higher because it supports the bell tower staircase. The three-bay nave is lit by narrow, ribbed-vaulted windows. https://chateauruine.fr/16-eglise-fortifiee-fouquebrune.html

The Tower is difficult to visualize; you must stay in the castle, which offers guest rooms, to access it.
