Église Sainte-Marie-Madeleine de Pérouges, Medieval fortified church in Pérouges, France
The Church of Saint Mary Magdalene stands at the entrance of the medieval city of Pérouges, with walls measuring 1.40 meters thick incorporating arrow slits.
Built in the 15th century, the church contained 17 altars dedicated to various guilds and received historical monument status in 1912.
