Église Saint-Médard

Built between the 11th and 12th centuries, the church was fortified at the start of the Hundred Years’ War.

In 1885, the façade was rebuilt, topped by a bell tower, and the rest was restored, in particular the buttresses of the forechoir and part of the nave. The major architectural alterations carried out in the late 19th century robbed the church of most of its Romanesque appearance. The interior plasterwork covers all the late 15th-century frescoes.

In 2013, Didier Legrands’ team from the Instituto Centrale per il Restauro in Rome carried out the 1st phase of restoration work on the wall paintings, marking an important step in the enhancement of an exceptional group of works in the Dordogne.
