Église Saint Georges du Rosay

Religious building or fortified castle? The church of St George is surprising!Of Romanesque origin (11th century), the places have been transformed over the centuries, notably during the wars of religion where the church was fortified. A front part is built with a complete defense system: watchtowers (small turrets), loopholes and barred doors. These defense elements narrowly escaped destruction in the 17th century.Inside you can admire a Virgin and Child, Saint Barbara, Saint Paul and of course the statue of Saint George. You will also be able to observe the remains of one of the Aunais crosses.
The building presents many other treasures: old clock mechanism, exhibition on the Cassini family, liturgical vestments...
