About

Saint Martin Church is a parish Catholic church located in Néry, France. It consists of three distinct parts. The nave and its sides are of a discreet neo-Gothic style, and were inaugurated in 1901.

The late Romanesque bell tower of the 1140s lies between the nave and the choir. It is characterized by its triumphal arch sculpted with broken sticks, its vault in broken cradle, the careful sculpture of capitals both inside and around the bays of the belfry floor, and the columnettes in crime that confine these windows. The elegant stone arrow, which cumulates at 37 m above ground level, replaced its Romanesque predecessor in the 16th century, as indicated by the four flamboyant bell towers at angles.

Finally, the choir, composed of a short right span and a five-paned apse, dates from the period between 1260 and the early 14th century, and the three bedside windows have a late radiating remplage. However, the vaults and stained glass windows were replaced in the 16th century. Reduced to fragments, these stained glass windows are still in place.
