Very beautiful pretty statues

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.

This church was sold during the revolution, a part being transformed into dwellings and the choir, used as a place of storage. To date this church, of Catholic origin, is desecrated.

The only remaining vestige of the collegiate church of Notre-Dame-du-Val, destroyed during the French Revolution.

The emblematic monument of Provins! You can visit Caesar's Tower (entrance fee or included in the Provins Pass) and enjoy the breathtaking view at the top.

The Jardin Garnier is one of the parks in Provins. Well decorated with sculptures and flower beds, this garden is worth a detour, the time of a loop on foot. We recognize the 19th century style and the taste for essences. Open every day except January 1 and December 25. - From May to September: every day from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. - October to April: daily from 8 a.m. to 5.30 p.m.

The firecracker to get to the top stings seriously 😉

The gate has just been renovated and the place is serene.
