A very authentic image of the public space that were the churches of the Romanesque period. A church built in the 11th and 12th centuries, enlarged a transept and a tower in the 13th century that will be topped by a bell tower in the 15th century. At the same time, it acquires the nave of a wooden vault.
Abandoned building early 19th, it will be beautifully restored in the middle of the same century. This restoration results in a church in nice condition.
Today's visitors find a bare church, if not empty, but very authentic. Arches, barrel-vaulted, domed trunk, vaulted sanctuary in half dome, carved decorations, all reflect the original building, reflection reinforced by the empty places. Originally, these public places saw penetrate even people on horseback.

A very small village, Gennes...
There was a very nice camping area on the banks of the Loire and luckily it had a shop and a Crepe van because we struggled to find any shops.
The village is overlooked by this old church at the top of a very steep path,on top of a hill is the church of St. Eusebius which hosts the memorial to the cadets who fell during a heroic resistance to the invading German forces. Nearly 800 cadets fought with very limited means in order to delay as much as possible the advance of the German army.
