Janaillat: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

The Église Saint-Saturnin combines several distinctive features: its interior includes a three-bay chapel with rib vaults, statues, and a wooden altarpiece. The church was partially rebuilt in the 19th century and has a chapel dating from the 15th century. Its western façade features a square bell tower with a wooden spire that is initially square and then octagonal, covered with slate.
