Église Saint-Pierre d'Ancenis, Gothic church in Ancenis-Saint-Géréon, France.

The Saint-Pierre church exhibits multiple architectural periods, from its Gallo-Roman tower base to the 15th-century buttressed narthex and 16th-century nave.

Construction of the church began in the 13th century, and it received official recognition as a historical monument in 1926 for its architectural significance.

The church features stained glass windows created by artist Raphaël Lardeur in 1946, adding modern artistry to its medieval structure.

Located at 21 Place Saint-Pierre, the church maintains regular visiting hours and serves as an active place of worship within the Diocese of Nantes.

The transept contains the only stone-vaulted section of the church, decorated with hanging keystones in the Plantagenet style from the late 15th century.
