In Chamblac the castle of Jean de la Varende was too. But for that the church was open. A member of the council showed us around and let us not only climb into the bell tower, I was even allowed to ring the bells. In Chamblac namely they have no electric bells. Man or woman has to hang and pull like crazy in the ropes.
The church of Notre-Dame (Notre-Dame ') was the 16th Century built. And the church does a lot to restore the church and maintain it. In the church there are curious decorations on the roof beams. With my camera I can not photograph so well. Maybe I'll buy even one day a better one. Until then, you have to stop with these photos commented.
In the church there are statues of saints from the 14th to 16 Century. From which I have no photos, it's a shame. In addition, there were some hangings of the Confrérie de Charité (, brotherhood of mercy ').
Then we drove on to Giverville. Since I was of course many times before, but never in the church. I even cited times: The parish church of Notre-Dame rope handles dates from the 16th Century. The facade consists of chert and light stones which are arranged in a checkerboard rope handles pattern. The choir dates from the 17th Century. Some of the windows from the 16th Century have been preserved. In the cemetery at the church are huge old yew. The baptismal font of the church dates from the 13th Century, it was classified as a monument historique in 1912 (historic monument '). rope handles The altarpiece of the northern altar dates from the 17th Century. The altarpiece is in the style of the sculptor Michel Lourdel (1577-1676). It shows a broken rope handles triangular pediment of a Sacred rope handles Heart of Jesus framed hovering over a bowl of fruit. The altarpiece was classified in 1907 as a monument historique. Five glazing were donated in 1922 by the then Comtesse de Giverville. They were made by Jean-Baptiste Devisme from Rouen. The porch of the church was built in 1817.
Outside the church, I found an interesting grave. François Guilbert, born in 1757, was in 1791 Vicar of Bazoques. rope handles That was (1789-1799) during rope handles the French Revolution. When he was elected to the State minister of Fontaine-la-Louvet, he refused and fled to England in 1792. After the Revolution, he came back and became pastor of Giverville, where he died in 1819.
Very chic, I found the many things the Confrérie de Charité, which by the way in Giverville still active today. The brotherhoods were previously mainly responsible for funerals. The or the dead man was dragged by the arms from the house to the church and placed there in a coffin. The coffin was decorated with an embroidered pall. Then the coffin rope handles of the "gates of paradise" was carried out, the south door of the church, which was to convey the soul, with the help of the sacred yew directly rope handles into paradise. Whether this has worked so well so, we would be able to learn only in a séance. No, I do not mean seriously, that even with the séance, the rest.
But especially class I took the painting from the 19th Century. Throughout its history, the Confréries de Charité were often at odds with the Church. Sometimes you took out some and acted as if they were the most important to the funerals. They drove more pomp than the pastor. Therefore, they were also occasionally a reprimand. I'll write again by myself from: m the course of the Concordat of 1801 were the Confréries de Charité allowed again. Published in 1805 Jean-Baptiste Boulier, bishop rope handles of Evreux, the rules of Confréries de Charité. They were under the local Gendarmerie Nationale and the clergy. 1842 adopted the Bishop Nicolas-Théodore Olivier new rules. He forbade the worship of crosses outside the church and the free choice of the patron saint. Some fraternities broke up then. This situation is also reflected in the painting. The Chariton do not look very happy.
Chariton's unfortunate and a pompous bishop. The painting was donated rope handles in 1865 the Brotherhood. Your own photo, license: CC by-SA Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported LINKS
