Collégiale Saint-Aignan de Saint-Aignan, Medieval church in Saint-Aignan-sur-Cher, France.
The collegiate church features eight columns with capitals depicting biblical scenes, reaching a height of 16.4 meters beneath its vaulted ceiling.
Construction began in the 11th century on the site of a modest chapel, incorporating both Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements over several centuries.
The crypt contains 12th and 13th-century murals, including a Byzantine-inspired Christ in Majesty fresco and representations of the four Evangelists.
The church serves as both a historical monument and an active religious site, with regular masses and guided tours available through the Tourist Office.
The northern exterior wall displays the effigy of Jeanne de Perellos, placed outside the consecrated building for her relationship with Count Louis II de Chalon.
