Église Saint-Pierre Saint-Paul, Romanesque church in Fouesnant, France.

Saint-Pierre church displays a Latin cross layout with a polygonal apse and two square chapels extending from its central structure.

The church's original construction dates to the early 12th century, with major repairs occurring in 1754 after a storm destroyed its central bell tower.

The church contains forty-eight Romanesque capitals decorated with geometric patterns and stylized plant motifs throughout its interior spaces.

Visitors can attend the annual Saint Pierre celebration, which takes place on the Sunday following June 29th in Fouesnant.

The church features blind arcading on the lower walls of its transept, reflecting architectural influences from Sainte-Croix de Quimperlé.
