Eglise Notre Dame - Niort, France - This Old Church on Waymarking.com

The building has undergone several transformations, such as the lowering of its roof or its change of orientation. The nave, perhaps unfinished in the 14th century, was turned into a choir in the 17th century while, on the side of the old chevet, two side doors were pierced at the end of the aisles, giving this part of building the role of main facade. The transept is adorned with a Renaissance grandstand.


L'édifice a subi plusieurs transformations, comme l'abaissement de sa toiture ou son changement d'orientation. La nef, peut-être inachevée au 14e siècle, a été transformée en choeur au 17e siècle tandis que, du côté de l'ancien chevet, deux portes latérales étaient percées à l'extrémité des bas-côtés, donnant à cette partie d'édifice le rôle de façade principale. Le transept est orné d'une tribune Renaissance.
