Tourist attraction Catholic church

👍👍 My second Candlelight concert and I came away dazzled from this hour during which I was cut off from the world. What an atmosphere with these candles in a pretty church that I often passed by and discovered. This quartet is a real team and in the 3rd row I was able to appreciate their movements and... People often mention church, century, concert, glise,

    Unique look from outside and good atmosphere inside with vintage look. The receptionist is a warm heart welcoming lady. She creates a feeling that u're home which is hard for asian ppl like me to feel here. Such a special church which i appreciate to get here 😇⭐️☀️

    My second Candlelight concert and I came away dazzled from this hour during which I was cut off from the world. What an atmosphere with these candles in a pretty church that I often passed by and discovered. This quartet is a real team and in the 3rd row I was able to appreciate their movements and their faces. I was with my daughter-in-law who was delighted. I am registered on the Fever site to track the next dates

    Église très surprenante mais instructive ! J'en ai appris beaucoup sur les gargouilles, notamment leur genres... Regardez les bien, vous verrez !

    (Translated by Google) The Notre Dame La Riche church presents beautiful paintings and beautiful sculptures. The stained glass windows deserve to stop on them (Original) L'église Notre Dame La Riche présente de belles peintures et belles sculptures. Les vitraux méritent de s'arrêter dessus

    This beautiful 15th century church, heavily transformed in the 19th century, houses some pretty things. Discovering it gave me a lot of pleasure, the statuary, the stained glass windows, the altars, the reliquaries, the paintings and painted decorations are remarkable. Its history of almost 2000 years begins in the 4th century; Saint Lidoire, 2nd bishop of Tours, built a first church. In the 10th century, this primitive church was replaced by a new building which took care of the burial of the poor, it was the Notre-Dame-La-Pauvre church. In the 12th century, the latter was rebuilt in Romanesque style on the site of the current building, it was named the Notre-Dame-La-Riche church. Then came the Gothic reconstruction in the 15th century, on the site of the Romanesque church. The last vestiges of the Romanesque construction disappeared in the middle of the 18th century. The 15th century nave covered with paneling was vaulted in bricks in the 19th century and the aisles rebuilt.

    Quaint, small church to walk through. Nothing extraordinary, but very peaceful.

    An absolutely beautiful building unfortunately squished between other buildings which don't allow for a view from afar. The façade is stunning. Inside, the high vaulted ceiling, pillars, statuary, painting are fabulous.

    C'est une eglise aux volumes généreux. C'est le lieu de répétition du Tours Gospel Choir et un concert avec eux en ce lieu est splendide.
