Fougeré - Saint-Étienne

The nave was erected in the 12th century and the carved graffiti may date back to that time, what I doubt. Information given locally claims, that they were carved by "crusaders". Seen is a large cross and a castle.

The nave was erected in the 12th century. Very experienced carpenters created the wooden vaulting in the 16th century. The nave opens to a Gothic "Plantagenet" choir.

The nave was erected in the 12th century, but the structure got modified and enlarged on different occasions later. The twisted spire is of course younger. These spires must have been very popular. I had just seen one in Le Vieil-Baugé and learned here, that there are five "twisters" in the area.
