source ParvisCatholic:
The bell tower was rebuilt in 1864 by the architect Vallet, de Niort. Its pyramidal roof is slate, and its southern buttress houses the staircase.

Perhaps you will hear the two bells ring, replacing the cracked one of 1709: "Jeanne-Delphine" and "Adeline", melted by Bollée father and son, at Le Mans in 1864.




source ParvisCatholic :
Le clocher a été refait en 1864 par l’architecte Vallet, de Niort. Son toit pyramidal est, lui, en ardoise, et son contrefort sud abrite l’escalier d’accès.

Peut-être entendrez-vous sonner les deux cloches, remplaçant celle fêlée de 1709 : « Jeanne-Delphine »et « Adeline », fondues par Bollée père et fils, au Mans en 1864.
