Église de Saint-Michel de Fronsac

This Romanesque church of Saintongeais style is, between 1171 and 1613, a priory of the abbey of Guîtres. Its Romanesque apse, vaulted in the cul de four, is decorated on the outside with seven blind semicircular arches, whose archivolts are carved with diamond points and wolf's teeth. The choir is barrel vaulted. The square bell tower on the transept dates from the 13th century. In 1868, the construction of the present neo-gothic bell tower on the western part of the building led to the destruction of the Romanesque façade.
