France - Caen, Église Saint-Pierre
Église Saint-Pierre (Saint-Pierre Church) was built between the 13th and 16th centuries to replace a 12th-century Romanesque church. The church features a mix of Gothic and Renaissance architecture. The nearly 80-metre-high tower dates from the 14th century; the nave was built in the 15th and 16th centuries.
The tower, which was destroyed during the fighting at the end of the World War II, was rebuilt in 1957. Inside the church, the columns, vaults and statues showcase the craftsmanship of the Middle Ages. The stained-glass windows add a splash of colour.
