Église Saint-Jacques, Medieval church in Illiers-Combray, France.
Saint Jacques Church features a nave measuring 44 meters in length and 14.3 meters in width, topped with a polychromatic vaulted ceiling from 1453.
The church reconstruction began in 1453 following its destruction during the Hundred Years War, under the leadership of Lord Florent d'Illiers.
The transverse beams of the vault end with carved heads and escutcheons depicting the noble families from the medieval period.
The main entrance consists of a wide stone staircase with nine steps leading to a wooden double door decorated with coats of arms.
The Chapel of the Holy Virgin, blessed in 1861, features a flat vault adorned with seventeen pendants in late flamboyant style.
