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 single nave church is dedicated to Saint Saturnin, the first bishop of Toulouse (= Saint Sernin).

I was lucky - the gallery was open!

The church got enlarged by an aisle (left) in the 15th century. - Note the yellow capitals in the choir. At some time, an ungifted artist had painted these capitals of the choir. He converted all medieval animals into zebra-chimeras!
