CUNAULT





Cunault is such a beautiful place. The high arches and tall columns direct your eye and mind upwards. The tuffeau fills the space with light making the whole building seem like an enclosure for the spirit.

The statue of St. Catherine is a special place of pilgrimmage for young woman hoping to find a husband. St. Catherine is depicted with the instruments of her torture and martyrdom - the wheel and the sword.

Amazing church. I love the patches inside on the columns.
