Église Sainte-Croix de Saint-Lô, Medieval church in Saint-Lô, France
The church building features Romanesque architecture with thick stone walls, rounded arches, and a modern concrete bell tower added in 1957.
Originally constructed around 1300, the church suffered extensive damage during World War II when its original bell tower collapsed during the 1944 bombardments.
The church interior contains carved Romanesque capitals depicting religious scenes, including the weighing of souls, Christ on the cross, and a goldsmith at work.
The church welcomes visitors daily and contains a restored Louis Debierre organ from 1892, which received complete renovation and inauguration in 2003.
The remains of three knights, beheaded during Edward III of England's capture of Saint-Lô in 1346, were discovered in the church after four centuries.
