The church, dedicated to Saint-Caprais (aka "Caprais d'Agen"), Bishop of Agen, martyred in the 4th century, is located at the confluence of the rivers Nea and Dordogne. The original design (nave and transepts) dates to the 12th century. During the 15th century two aisles were added to the (once) single nave church.
This capital is from the 12th century. It is very strange and enigmatic. Who is the roped person? Is he getting kicked and beaten? Martyred?

This was as well the time, when the vaulting was done.
Renovations started in the late 19th century and continued through the first half of the 20th.

Nice corbels under the roof of the 12th-century-apse. Here is a contortionist, who of course is very flexible. He may be nude, but I´m not sure.
