The church of Saint-Vincent is a Romanesque church from the 12th century. Reshaped in the Gothic period and in the 18th century, its richness comes from the portal decorated with frescos of oriental style. It has a massive fortified bell tower, altarpieces and two wooden statues of saints. Its famous cemetery cross, dating from the end of the 15th century, decorated with 12 statuettes representing the Apostles, was listed in 1907. This Romanesque church opens onto a portal, crowned by four vaults, decorated with interlacing. The vaults and capitals have carved motifs. A frieze, composed of facing griffins, decorates the capitals of the small columns framing the opening.

The old medieval church no longer exists, but a presbytery was built in 1670 and in the church of Sainte-Maurice, in 1715, the marriage of Jacques Duranteau, royal notary of Marguerite Portier, is recorded. Reignac has always been a place of residence for notaries, the last of whom, Guy Moraud, stayed for more than 50 years, from 1943 to 1994. In 1751, on July 24th, a clock was installed in the church of Sainte Maurice. In 1869, the construction of the modern church began according to the plans of Mr. Hostein. The consecration of this new church, with a rather slender modern bell-tower, is carried out in 1879.

Charming and rustic, the small chapel of Tutiac is dedicated to Notre Dame de Verdot. It is peacefully nestled among vineyards and pine trees.

Ex-votos offered as a sign of gratitude bear witness to the spirituality of this place, which is always the subject of an annual pilgrimage on 8 September (Nativity of the Virgin).
