Loire Valley churches - St.Martin's Charnizay

The last time I tried to have a look in the church at Charnizay I was thwarted by locked doors and dodgems! - it was the day of their brocante. So as we were passing through the village again recently, I checked it our, glad I did!

The Eglise St Martin can be traced back to the 10th century, probably consisting of just the nave and bell tower.It belonged, like many in the area, to the 'Church of Martin de Tours'

It was  that was added to in the 15th century.
