Picnic area at the foot of the village of Saint-Loup de Naud

aint Loup-de-Naud located near Provins, has a Romanesque church from the 11th and 12th centuries, considered one of the most beautiful Romanesque buildings in Île-de-France. It has a barrel-shaped nave and a portal in early Gothic style with a remarkable tympanum depicting Christ in majesty between the symbols of the evangelists. New for the time, statues of saints and prophets adorn the sides of the portal. No document allows us to precisely date the construction of the entire church. The portal would be from the second half of the 12th century (around 1160). The town is the seat of the Benedictine priory of Saint-Loup, the destination of an important pilgrimage in honor of the relics of Saint-Loup, bishop of Sens. The church was completed thanks to donations from Henry the Liberal, Count of Champagne. The priory was ruined by the English in 1432 and by the Protestants in 1567.
