Church of Saint Sixtus of Thelonne

The church was rebuilt in 1849 (date inscribed on the outside south wall of the nave) following a subscription collected on 31 December 1848, and the inauguration took place on 17 September 1849. Saint-Sixte church is located in the southern part of the village and faces north-east. It has an elongated plan. The single nave is preceded by a western section comprising the bell tower in the centre, flanked by two storerooms. The choir is in the form of a semicircular apse framed by two sacristies, so that the external chevet is flat. The building is built of limestone rubble with ashlar stringcourses, except for the west facade, which is entirely of ashlar limestone in medium coursing. The floor is covered with limestone slabs and the inside faces of the walls are covered with faux-joint rendering. The nave and sacristy walls are pierced with semi-circular bays. The west facade features a door with a straight lintel topped by a semi-circular bay with infill. The top of the stone tower has a courtyard with a wrought iron balustrade. The nave is covered by a false barrel vault and the choir by a cul-de-four. The roof is entirely slate. The nave and choir are covered by a hipped long-sloped roof and the bell tower by a polygonal spire.
