In the areas of Angers and Saumur and Fontevraud, there are hundreds of exceptional ancient churches, and the Romanesque architecture of most of them is phenomenal. To visit even one of these masterpieces is to be taken back in time to another world, perhaps more attuned to the spirit. As always, Zodiaque has produced a volume that is beyond expectation. A wonderful gift. View More...
