Châtel-Montagne - Notre-Dame
The church (seen here from south/east) is quite large for a remote village (pop. under 50). It was planned and built during the boom of pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostella. Châtel-Montagne was ideally placed on one of the many "Chemin de St-Jacques" in France. This one connected Vezelay (via Nevers) to Clermont (and Le Puy).
The church, built from local grey granite, is a basilica with a transept, an ambulatory (typical for churches built for pilgrims), and four radial chapels.
