Attention, difficult course

beautiful bridge

This stone cross rising from the brick base may appear intact at a first glance, but it's worth a second closer look: the cross apparently once had a body, which has since been removed. Where the longitudinal and transverse beams meet, the outlines of the corpus that was formerly attached can still be seen in the stone. Also clearly visible are the holes that marked the nails on the outstretched arms and feet, with which the figure of Christ crucified had been fixed to the stone.

This church is not - as is usually the case - dedicated to one of the many people we venerate as saints, or to Mary the Mother of God or her son. Instead, it bears a biblical event as its patronage title, namely the "TRANSFIGURATION de NOTRE SEIGNEUR" (called "Transfiguration of the Lord" in German-speaking countries). => "In the middle of everyday life, three disciples have an Easter experience with Jesus: They see Jesus in a mysterious light, and Moses and Elijah talk to him. In this way, the deepest identity of Jesus as the "beloved son" of God is revealed to the disciples." This is what is said in brief in a work aid from the Bible work for the Feast of Transfiguration, which is celebrated in all Christian denominations on August 6th. This event, which is attested to in the New Testament - see Mark (chapter 9) and Luke (chapter 9) as well as Matthew (chapter 17) - is located on Mount Tabor in Israel. A basilica was built there to commemorate (see https://www.komoot.de/highlight/266239), which can therefore be considered the original church for the patronage of this place of worship.

This former chapel has the last windows, designed by Chagall. These windows were commissioned by Mr. de Lasteyrie du Saillant, (owner of the 15th century castle, not visited). The stained glass windows (including so famously blue) represent the East: Creation and West: Two bouquets symbolize love. The windows of the nave are representative grisailles fieldwork in Salient sublimated by their symbolic symbol of the Eucharist through the harvest, wine through the harvest, the Shepherd and Servant through Christ's sheep through the fishery. Access to the chapel is open from 9am to 6pm.

A royal villa under the Merovingians, the land of the Saillant - Orbaciacus - was then a vassal of the Church, dependent in the 9th century on the abbey of Beaulieu and from the 11th century on the bishop of Limoges. The rectangular construction from the 15th century includes the remains of a primitive keep and was originally supposed to be enclosed by corner towers. The powerful stone corbels supporting the roof overhang come from the old machicolations whose upper part has been amputated and adapted to their new role. The cellars preserve remains of the primitive keep with openings in a slightly broken arch or semicircular. On the ground floor there is a monumental fireplace in the hall, the hood of which is decorated with murals.
