Le Vieil-Baugé - Saint-Symphorien

The nave is clearly the oldest part (~1060), transepts and tower were completed around a century later. After the Abbey of Saint-Serge d'Angers took over the place as a priory, the building process started again and the choir and the radiant chapels (not to be seen from here) were added.
The gothic chapels date to the 15th and 16th century. In 1804 the nave collapsed, the rebuilding took more than 20 years. After that, the tower got renovated, the twisted spire was completed end of the 19th century.
