Site/monument
Église Saint-Sulpice de Oyré
Back
One of the most remarkable small Romanesque churches in the Vienne. In a primitive Romanesque style from the end of the XNUMXth / beginning of the XNUMXth century, it has a gallery open to the outside, which envelops its facade and part of the south side with columns linked together by a continuous arcade and a porch.
Inside, the sculptures on the capitals have an archaic and naive character: they are decorated with decorations of plants, animals or characters, but it is difficult to make sense of the unusual scenes.
Statue of the Bishop of Bourges, Saint-Sulpice from the XNUMXth century, in polychrome and gilded wood.
