Saint-Martin-des-Puits - Saint-Martin

Saint-Martin-des-Puits - Saint-Martin
Following the valley of the Orbieu south to the hamlet Saint-Martin-des-Puits (pop. 25). The small church Saint-Martin is located next to the D 212.

It is known, that the Abbaye Sainte-Marie de Lagrasse (11kms north) had a priory here since 1093, but this church is probably older than that.

The small church was obviously erected in two stages. Some scholars see mozzarabic influences, dating it to the very early 11th centuries, while other scholars see Visogothic traces, dating it back to the 8th/9th century.
