Sizun Parish close, Religious complex in Sizun, France.
The parish close contains a church, an ossuary chapel, a sacristy, and a triumphal arch entrance measuring 15 meters in length with three arches and stone balustrades.
Built between 1585 and 1590, the parish close received official recognition as a classified historical monument in March 1943, preserving its Renaissance architectural elements.
The ossuary displays twelve detailed apostle statues in niches, while the church features five altarpieces and a Thomas Dallam organ from 1683.
The former ossuary functions as the Centre d'interprétations des Enclos Paroissiaux, offering exhibitions about regional heritage and religious architecture.
The exterior decorations include mythological creatures, a siren resembling a female serpent, and stone carvings of everyday animals on the chevet frieze.
