The parish church in Saujon is a sober structure, erected 1679. Since 1912 the nave hosts four Romanesque capitals that once were part of a (lost) church dedicated to Saint Martin.

One of the masterly carved capitals, has this "psychostasia", the Weighing of souls. Depending from the scale - the soul will go either the heaven or hell. Often the scale is held by archangel Michael and often the devil is cheating by holding down the left side of the scale. Here the long-haired devil, who is dotted with pimples, is pushed back be the angel in the center.
