Colomby - Saint-Georges

Colomby, known as "Columbeio"in medieval times, has this large Gothic church, dedicated to Saint George. It was built within the 13th/14th century.

The late Romanesque tympanum in the Gothic side portal probably came from another, older building and probably got "recycled" here. The end buds of the spirals may have looked like "Fleur-de-lis" - and so they got chiselled off in Revolutionary times.
