This is a wayside cross located on the Route des Menots, at the southern exit of Fouquebrune,

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.

Church located near the cemetery. It is a Romanesque church, pierced by an ogival door on important corner buttresses. Rebuilt in the 15th century, it was restored from 1656 to 1668, then in 1830. Two side chapels were added, and an arcade bell tower on the facade. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juillaguet

The Notre-Dame de Charmant church dates from the end of the 11th century. It is Romanesque and has a remarkable bell tower, in an octagonal pyramid. This bell tower, destroyed by a storm, was rebuilt in 1843. Inside, some beautiful murals remain, including one of the Assumption. Two crosses pattées sculpted on its facade to the left of the portal may suggest that it was a Templar possession in the 13th century. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89glise_Notre-Dame_de_Charmant https://monumentum.fr/monument-historique/pa00104282/boisne-la-tude-eglise-notre-dame

The title suggests an unusual village; it is not. It is an isolated village composed of old houses without any particular style. In my eyes, the only points of interest are the church (which you can't walk around and which doesn't offer much in terms of its exterior facade), the chapel near the cemetery (very basic, you just walk around it without leaving more cultured) and the castle which offers accommodation as a bed and breakfast. The village as a whole is not essential, like the town hall building: bland, aged with a poorly preserved authenticity.

A small Charentais village with nothing in particular until we discover the "priest's garden", a garden maintained and preserved by the inhabitants around the church.

The Notre-Dame parish church dates from the end of the 11th century. It is Romanesque and has a remarkable bell tower, in an octagonal pyramid. This bell tower, destroyed by a storm, was rebuilt in 1843. Inside, some beautiful murals remain, including one of the Assumption. Two crosses pattée carved on its facade to the left of the portal may suggest that it was a Templar possession in the 13th century.
