Saint Martin's Church in Jenzat is a Romanesque church, built in the 10th and 11th centuries, famous for its 15th century frescoes which depict scenes from the Passion of Christ, the life of Saint Catherine of Alexandria, and the prayers of the common people after the Black Death. You can admire the colorful and expressive paintings on the walls of the nave, as well as the geometric patterns on the vaults of the apse. The information panel located outside the church allows you to learn more about the history and architecture of the church.
