in SAINTE-FAUSTE

Eglise Sainte-Fauste

Rebuilt in 1878, the church has a single south-west facing nave, two side chapels, a two-bay choir with a flat chevet and a porch under the bell tower placed in the main axis of the façade.
Description
The church contains exceptional furniture both in terms of its importance and its quality: flamboyant stone windows and a flamboyant 15th century door, both from the chapel of the Lords of La Ferté; the funeral plaque of Canon Mathieu Perrot (1571-1644), prior of Saint-Cyr and commendatory abbot of Varennes Abbey; a calvary, in stone and plaster, from the 16th century, once adorning the domestic chapel of the Château de la Ferté; a 17th century carved wooden pulpit with a decoration of fleurs-de-lis and pearls and decorated with the dove of the Holy Spirit .
At the entrance to the south chapel dedicated to Mary, stands a high statue (late 14th century) of the Virgin breastfeeding the infant Jesus: an admirable work by the grace of the attitude and the softness of the face.
