Lubersac - Saint-Étienne

Lubersac - Saint-Étienne
Romans had been here during Hadrian´s time and where they had erected a temple, a small church got built mid 10th century. This structure got rebuilt and enlarged already within the 11th/12th century. Looted and damaged a century later, it got rebuilt, altered, enlarged, extended and strongly fortified. Within the structure, some parts of the 12th century structure survived the times.

One of these is the portal seen here. The polylobed arch is typical for the mozarabic style.
