Biron - Saint-Eutrope / Notre-Dame

Notre-Dame is the parish church of Biron, a village 6kms east of Pons.
Once the church was dedicated to Saint-Eutrope as a relic of "Saint Eutropius of Saintes", who came to the region to evangelize the Gauls in the 3rd century, was kept here. Erected within the 12th century the church got fortified soon after. During the 15th/16th century it got enlarged, the apse got vaulted and a chapel was added.
Compared to the clumsy carvings inside the church (previous uploads), all carvings outside are masterly carved. There are some exceptionell carbels under the roof in Biron. The lady with that wonderful fascinator (previous upload) is accompanied by this smiling, bearded gentleman, who has invested into a nice green headdress.
