Marignac - Saint-Sulpice

The parish church Saint-Sulpice in the village of Marignac was erected within the 12th century as part of a priory, founded here by the Charroux Abbey (120kms southeast). The church has a remarkable cloverleaf layout. The eastern part, seen here and the portal are still dating back to the first church here, while the outer walls of the nave have been rebuilt, after destruction by war.

All around the eastern "cloverleaf" are carved corbels, pillar and capitals. Here a is a group of slightly weathered posing mermaids
