Église Saint-Marc d'Épertully

About

Saint-Marc Chapel is located in the territory of the French commune of Épertully, Saône-et-Loire. This chapel, the only religious building in the commune, has the peculiarity of being in the centre of the cemetery and serving as a church in the village.

Description: The building consists of a modest rural church, with stone walls coated, with oblique and resaute foothills that support the angles of the construction (two straight foothills with resaute slopes are also placed at the section of the two primitive spans). Her nave and choir are covered with flat tiles. Its base is Romanesque but it has undergone several modifications over the centuries and currently has a general appearance at the end of the 15th or early 16th century, with a bell of facade typically of the 19th century (covered with slates, arrow and mandelet, it was built in 1848, knowing that the bell was originally placed on the tip of the medieval gable supported by two stones of about 90 cm height). The current bell dates back to 1849. In this church, one can see the touching testimony of a mother who offered her church a chair with embroidered seats with an enamelled plaque...
