Église Saint-Lucien d'Avernes

About

Saint Lucian Church is a parish Catholic church located in Avernes, France. The history of the parish remains in the shadows. Its foundation dates back at least to the middle of the 12th century, when the portal dates back, which is no longer entirely Romanesque, nor really Gothic.

The rest of the church is essentially primitive Gothic. The choir and the cross of the transept were built in the first place, towards the end of the twelfth century. The cruises followed shortly afterwards.

The depth of the sanctuary, the sexpartite vault of the first span, and the special arrangement of the supports are remarkable, even if the columns of the warheads are missing today. In 1883 and 1888, the choir and the southern crusillon underwent quite radical restorations, including the replacement of the vault keys and almost all the capitals. At the beginning of the 20th century, however, the restoration of the northern crusillon was not completed, and the result was the presence of cubic blocks as capitals.

Unlike the other spans of the same era, the square of the transept has traversed centuries without significant alterations, and remains the most authentic part...
