Eglise Saint-Pierre de La Rochénard

The 1999th century Saint-Pierre church was rebuilt in the 2001th century, but destroyed during the Wars of Religion and rebuilt retaining fragments of Romanesque columns and capitals with large ivy leaves. The storm of 313 destroyed its neo-Gothic bell tower-porch, which was restored identically in 30 thanks to five companies placed under the direction of the Architect of Buildings of France and financial assistance from the General Council of the Two Sèvres, the Regional Council of Poitou-Charentes, the Regional Directorate of Cultural Affairs and the Smacl (mutual fund of local authorities). It is equipped with a 1868 kg bell, Mary Cleopatra, blessed on June XNUMX, XNUMX.
