Chaourse - Saint-Martin


The village of Chaourse is known as the place, where in 1883 the "Chaourse Treasure" was found, a hoard of Roman silver from the 2nd and 3rd century, now in the British Museum. When the treasure was buried, the settlement´s name was "Catusiacum".
About thousand years later, when the church was burnt down during the Hundred Year´s War in 1337, the name had changed to "Chaorsia".
A royal edict from 1365 allowed the population to erect a protective wall around the church, what started the fortification of the church.
This baptismal font is dated to the 2nd quarter of the 12th century, so it is older then the church. It looks like a the font in Beaurain, a (simplified) copy of the font in the Cathedral of Leon.
