Prax: it’s a splendid pile (but note the seigneurial-looking abbey buildings, hence the Revolution), but the spire is very, well, English – reminiscent of a parish church in the Midlands?
That the spire should look “English” is not that surprising since we are in Poitou – a part that made its influence felt in England. What is interesting about the spire -and perhaps no so visible from the pictures – is the fleureon work.
