Prieuré de Merlande, Medieval priory in La Chapelle-Gonaguet, France.
The Prieuré de Merlande exhibits solid stone walls, rounded arches, and barrel vaults characteristic of French Romanesque religious architecture.
The Bishop of Périgueux, Geoffroy de Cauze, established this religious institution in 1142, dedicating it to Saint John the Baptist.
Three altars constructed in 1527 within the priory demonstrate the evolution of religious practices and architectural styles during the Middle Ages.
