Description

Built around 1155, it features a pointed barrel nave and semicircular apse. Dedicated to Saint-Vérédème, a recognized Greek hermit chosen by the popes of Avignon to become bishop.
Originally built in the Romanesque style, the Saint Véradème Church was later fortified, forming a keep with massive buttresses and flying buttresses supporting a walkway with battlements and machicolations. Today, only a few vestiges of
the original fortifications remain. From 1842 to 1845, a bay and six chapels were added to the church. Its bell tower, consisting of two superimposed levels, pierced with four elegant Romanesque openings, is now an elegant bell tower classified as a «Historic Monument». The facade, in good condition, ,was restored in 1971. Inside, there are painted and gilded wooden statues from the 18th century, such as those of Saint Véradème, Saint Gens, and Saint Roch...
