Église du Vieux Lugo, Romanesque church in Lugos, France
The stone church exhibits Romanesque architecture with a main nave, choir area, and a 15th-century bell tower that replaced an earlier wall bell structure.
The church stood as a central point during medieval times at the crossroads of important routes connecting major cities including Bordeaux and Dax.
Interior walls feature 15th-century paintings depicting pilgrimage themes related to Saint James of Compostela and representations of the seven deadly sins.
The municipality manages this protected historical monument, and visitors need to contact local authorities for access and touring information.
An earlier layer of medieval wall paintings remains hidden beneath the current 15th-century murals that cover the nave and choir walls.
