Escurolles - Saint-Cyr-et-Sainte-Julitte
The parish of Escurolles was given to Cluny in 953/054 by Ermengarde, (probably) the wife of Archambaud I de Bourbon, Seigneur de Bourbon (yes, this is where the illustrious name derived from). The church Saint-Cyr-et-Sainte-Julitte was built 11th/12th century. Today, the western facade seems rather damaged, as the narthex and the be tower got demolished 1908. Since then the bells are hanging in that wooden structure seen to the left.
The church is known for some pretty archaic carvings It devoted to Saint-Cyr and his mother Sainte-Julitte, 4th-century-martyrs, that were very popular in medieval times. Many towns and villages in France are named after St. Cyr (eg Saint-Cirq-Lapopie).
