Beaune - Collégiale Notre-Dame de Beaune

Beaune - Collégiale Notre-Dame de Beaune
Beaune, in the centre of the Department "Côte-d’Or", is one of the key wine centres in France. It is the centre of Burgundy wine production.
and business. The annual wine auction of the "Hospices de Beaune" is worldwide noticed and maybe the most important auction in France.

The collegiate was founded in Beaune within the 10th century, the building of this church, which is a parish church since the French Revolution, started in Romanesque style within the 12th century. The Romanesque capitals are very detailed and have a specific "soft" style. This one is symmetric. Two kings holding pomegranates?

See the PiPs for more examples of the carving style.
