Saint-Gimer Church

The church is located outside the medieval city walls, built in the middle of the nineteenth century, restored by architect Eugene Duke, in the nineteenth century is a Gothic incarnation, the view from the church of Contel Castle is very wonderful, the church and the surrounding area is in a state of disrepair, There are big cracks in the walls, the outside plaster shedding and the surrounding area overgrown.

The church is small, but very distinctive, unlike the conventional baroque or gothic architecture seen. It is said that the church dates back to the Western Roman Empire and is of course the end period. There is not much left after the passage of the Germanic barbarians. It can be seen that it was re-enacted in the Middle Ages, with some of the characteristics of the Order, but it is still invincible to the erosion of the years.
