Église Saint-Sébastien de Manglieu, Romanesque church in Manglieu, France.

This medieval church features a stone facade with gray tones on the lower section and pink hues on the upper part, decorated with Romanesque arches.

The abbey was established around 656 by Saint Genès, Bishop of Clermont-Ferrand, on family lands near an ancient road connecting Clermont to Nîmes.

Merovingian and Carolingian sarcophagi, ancient columns, and an 11th-century coffin demonstrate the architectural evolution through centuries.

A shaded parking area is located in front of the church, allowing visitors to park their vehicles in direct proximity to the monument.

The relics of Saint Sebastian, brought in 959, led to the church's name change from its previous dedication to the Apostles.
