A curious 15th century / early 16th century church which was rebuilt in the 19th century, perpendicular to the original meaning, not without arousing some controversy… We better understand the particular aspect of the rounded walls in the facades. The oldest part is the chapel, the former choir of the original church. Curious faces in black stone are present, high up, next to the stone arches.

The Saint-Clément church, located in the Hautes-Alpes, is a remarkable historic site. Perched on a hill, it offers panoramic views of the Alpine region. This medieval castle, dating from the 13th century, bears witness to the architecture and life of the time. Its stone walls, towers and moats tell a fascinating story of the past.
