Église Notre-Dame d'Ourjout, Romanesque church in Bordes-Uchentein, France
The Notre-Dame d'Ourjout Church features a single nave with a semi-circular apse and exterior corbels decorated with traditional irregular slate roofing.
Constructed between the 11th and 17th centuries, the church received official classification as a historical monument through a decree on November 19, 1910.
The church walls contain preserved Romanesque murals from approximately 1130, discovered during choir restoration in 2012, comparable to Pyrenean artist Master of Taüll.
The Patrimoine Art Culture association of Bordes-Uchentein manages guided visits and distributes an illustrated brochure featuring information about five local churches.
The bell-tower wall stands out with its twin arcades, while the side chapels, added in the 18th century, complement the original architecture.
