ヴィレンヌラカレルのおすすめライド

ヌーシャテルにあるこの壮麗な教会は、「聖エティエンヌ」に捧げられました。彼はエルサレムの初期教会の最初の7人の執事の一人であり、「新約聖書」の聖書によると、初期キリスト教の最初の殉教者（血の証人）でもあります。教会は彼の死を12月26日のクリスマスの2日目に記念します。 使徒言行録が伝えるように、ステファノが「しかし、聖霊に満たされて、天を見上げ、神の栄光と、神の右に立っておられるイエスとを見た」（第7章55節）と、開かれた天の幻を大声で表明したとき、人々は非常に憤慨し、彼を町から追い出して石打ちにしたのです。

The place that gives its name to the surrounding forest. An abbey founded in 1145 by monks from the Abbey of Citeaux in search of silence and isolation. Now, only a ruined section remains, visible through the foliage from the road. Note that these ruins are located on the grounds of the oldest summer camp still in operation in France.

This 11th century medieval bridge is a beautiful place to contemplate Beaumont-sur-Sarthe for a short moment. In addition to the river, you can see the castle located on the heights of the town.

The Chapitrel is the name given to the entrance gate. The period door is in the Renaissance style. This construction had several functions: It was reserved for catechumens who were not allowed to enter the church and served as a warehouse for farmers who sold at the market on Sunday mornings. The saddleback tower dates from 1545. It is 28 m high. It is square and has four levels. Each floor is separated by an external Roussard belt called a "larmier" which overhangs quite widely, preventing water from running off. At the top of the roof are two granite crosses, each topped with a copper weather vane representing a crowned dragon's head.

Saint-Martin Chapel. It dates from the 12th or 13th century. It is made of granite, roussard sandstone and brick. This small chapel is lost in the middle of the fields. It is a simple rectangular nave which has a Romanesque window at its chevet.
