Jeantes - Saint-Martin

Jeantes - Saint-Martin
A church in Jeantes was known since the 12th century, as it got mentioned in a charter of the Bishop of Laon Barthélémy. The building seen today was built from bricks around 1620-30 and probably replaced the older one.

The interior of the church is surprising. In 1962 the Dutch artist Charles Eyck created great frescoes, covering 200 m² of the interior walls.
