Clermont-Ferrand - Notre-Dame-Du-Port

Clermont-Ferrand - Notre-Dame-Du-Port
Notre-Dame-Du-Port constructed probably during the 12th century (on older foundations) and once a stopover on the pilgrim´s way to Santiago, got vandalized during the French Revolution. The furnishings got burned and some carvings on the outside of the church got partly destroyed. Here the southern portal, that got damaged (all faces are lost).

The two large sculptures next to the doors are less damaged. On the left is Isaiah (standing on two falling angels) on the right bearded John the Baptist.
