Louvie-Juzon

Built in the early sixteenth century, the church of St. Martin was enlarged in the second half of the seventeenth century. The entire western façade, as well as the bell tower, was rebuilt during the 19th century. Inside, it is possible to admire many objects listed as Historical Monuments like a Christ on the cross of the seventeenth century, and several altars and altarpieces of the eighteenth century topped with paintings of St. Martin. The seventeenth-century painted and gilded wood bas-relief depicting the baptism of Christ, the pulpit and its Atlantean statue of the four evangelists, and the 18th century tabernacle with its seven-seals lambs are also worthy of note. Warning. On the steeple of the church, it is possible to admire two carved louvres recalling the origins of the village.
