Saint-Hilaire-la-Croix

Saint-Hilaire-la-Croix
What is the parish church of the tiny village of Saint-Hilaire-la-Croix today, was the church of a priory, depending on Mozat around 1165.
In the beginning the priory was named "Saint-Hilaire-lac-rouge", but over the time, the old name got a little "deformed". There is not much known about the priory. It served the pilgrims on their way - and somehow it was important enough, to built (and finance) such an extraordenary church. Seen already from a distance is the fantastic portal.
