The Abbey of Notre-Dame de La Couronne is an exceptional monumental complex, composed of the remains of the old abbey church and the convent buildings. A major building representing the introduction of Gothic in Angoumois at the end of the 12th century. In the 12th century, the Abbey of Notre-Dame de la Couronne was founded (from 1118, laying of the first stone). The work was carried out quickly and on March 12, 1122, the monks (of the regular order of Saint Augustine) settled in the presence of Bishop Girard de Blay and the Count of Angoulême. From its creation, the abbey was a great success: a new church was built at the end of the 12th century (choir and nave: 1171-1194; the end of the work was slowed down by wars, famines, etc.): it was dedicated in 1201, in the presence of the Archbishop of Bordeaux. The convent buildings were also renewed at the end of the 12th and beginning of the 13th century: cloisters, dormitory, refectory, infirmary, etc. A surrounding wall surrounded the abbey. During the 13th century, the furnishings were enriched, the Saint-Nicolas chapel was built and the bell tower was built. During the Hundred Years' War, the monks were dispersed and the bell tower collapsed (1450). At the end of the 15th century, the abbey was reborn: part of the collapsed church was rebuilt, a new abbey building was built (the work was completed after 1514). The Wars of Religion affected the abbey again: it was pillaged in 1562, part of its furniture was burned. The convent buildings were restored in 1571. At the beginning of the 17th century, the abbey, which now had only eight monks, was united with the Jesuit order; it was then placed under the obedience of the congregation of Sainte-Geneviève in 1644. In the 18th century, a final campaign of works (1750-1778) transformed the convent buildings. During the Revolution, the abbey became national property. It was sold in 1807, used as a quarry and was gradually dismantled and divided into several properties. This religious establishment is now in ruins and inaccessible to the public. But it is possible to imagine it thanks to a virtual reality tour with the Legendr application.

The parish church of Notre-Dame is Romanesque and dates from the 12th century. It has a Romanesque bell tower with two floors of arched bays and a conical spire. A dome is at the crossing and the capitals are decorated with sculptures. On the gable of the façade, bas-reliefs depict Christ between evangelical symbols. Its façade was damaged during the Revolution, and heavily restored in the 19th century10. It was classified as a historic monument on July 12, 1886 https://www.angouleme-tourisme.com/patrimoine-culturel/eglise-notre-dame-de-trois-palis/ A little history of the town of Trois Palis by following this link: http://trois-palis.fr/histoire-et-patrimoine/

Notre Dame de Trois-Palis is a small church located in the center of the town of Trois-Palis. From the Romanesque period, it was listed as a historic monument in 1886. The conical spire covered with pine cone scales that rises above the square bell tower can be seen from afar. It dominates a small Romanesque building located in the heart of the town. Its façade is divided into three floors: At the top, in the triangular gable wall, Christ in Majesty is surrounded by the tetramorph (set of four symbolic representations of the evangelists: the bull of Saint Luke; the eagle of Saint John; the lion of Saint Mark; the angel of Saint Matthew). This theme is directly inspired by the Saint-Pierre cathedral in Angoulême. The central space, between the gable and the portal, is occupied by modern high reliefs representing Christ surrounded by the Virgin and Saint John. On the ground floor, the sculpture made of foliage and animals is present on the arches of the portal. Restored in 1891 century, the small church of Notre-Dame has undergone major modifications. A semicircular apse replaced a flat chevet and the nave was vaulted. Inside, the building consists of a single nave, split into three bays. The walls of the nave are clad with large pointed arches. The south wall of the nave is pierced by three bays, while the north wall is blind. In the extension of the nave, a bay under a bell tower deserves attention. The columns arranged in this space are all endowed with a rich sculpted program that develops in the capitals. They are all historiated and represent the themes frequently deployed near the sanctuary: original sin and the fight between Good and Evil. The semicircular apse replaced a flat chevet in the 19th century. It has a cul-de-four vault. Listed as a Historic Monument in 1886. Open every day from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
