Noailhac - Saint-Pierre-ès-Liens

Noailhac - Saint-Pierre-ès-Liens
"Saint-Pierre-ès-Liens" ("Saint Peter in Chains") is the parish church of Noailhac. The erection of the church started in the 12th century and was probably completed soon after.

The church got partly destroyed during the Hundred Years War, so the nave was rebuilt later in a simple Gothic style. During the French Revolution the church suffered damage again. This Romanesque baptismal font survived the times. Generation of villagers were baptised here.
