Église Sainte-Cécile de Cos, Pre-Romanesque church in Le Tech, France
The church features a rectangular nave extending into a flat chevet, with narrow windows providing natural light throughout the stone structure.
Originally dedicated to Saint Mary in the 9th century, the church became a parish under Saint Cecilia's patronage in 1159.
The building represents the architectural transition period between Early Christian forms and the later Romanesque style in Southern France.
The church underwent restoration efforts in the 1990s, including the addition of a concrete vault to protect the remaining structure.
The catastrophic floods of 1940 resulted in the loss of the church bell, which local parishioners had previously recovered after its theft.
