Discover the Saint-Pierre d'Échebrune church:
Well established on its overhang, the Saint-Pierre d'Échebrune church stands out in the landscape. It has one of the most beautiful Romanesque facades in Saintonge.
Modified over the centuries, it now has a Gothic choir and a Renaissance chapel. These assets make this remarkable building a particularly popular place to visit.
