Guitinières: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

Culture and History

Guitinières is home to the Église Saint-Romain, built in the 12th century. It retains its Romanesque nave and sculpted portal. The raising of the nave roof with the help of crenellation-shaped buttresses gives the church a fortified appearance. The Église Saint-Romain is protected as a historic monument; corresponding listings are recorded for 1925 and 2000.
