Tamerville - Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption

Tamerville - Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption
The parish church "Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption" in the center of Tamerville has a remarkable Romanesque tower. The erecttion of the church (and the tower) started in 1070 and was completed mid 12th century, but later the church got enlarged and altered a couple of times. The church was dedicated to Saint Mayeul (aka "Mayeul de Cluny", "Majolus of Cluny"). Saint Mayeul, important abbot of Cluny, built Cluny II. There must have been a connection to the Burgundy in the early times.

I had been here five years ago and already uploaded many photos. Now I will add only very few.

Two persons / couples can often be seen on the corbels under the roof, but three persons are very rare. Triplets?

(deleted account) has particularly liked this photo
