Mosnac - Saint-Saturnin

Mosnac - Saint-Saturnin
Early morning in Mosnac (aka "Mosnac sur Seugne"). The parish church Saint Saturnin dates back to the 12th century. The church is dedicated to Saint Saturnin, the first bishop of Toulouse (= Saint Sernin).

I have already uploaded many photos from here after my last visit, so this time, I will add only a few.

Here is a damaged and weathered bull´s head - - and somebody has carved the bulls forelegs into the wall below the corbel. What a graffito!
Who dared to do that? This was probably either a Protestant during the Wars of Religions or a French Revolutionist.
