Church of Saint-Sigismond

In 1471, Antoine Noblet took in charge the refurbishment and extension of the building. From this Gothic era, we only have left the little side door with 3 pointed arch. A stoup in his tribute is visible behind the presbytery.

Refurbished at the beginning of the XIXth century by the priest Rouge, it will impress you with all its ornaments and details : onion-shaped steeple, baroque and neoclassic altars, Gothic porch, cupola... A fresco representing the king Sigismond as a martyr could never be completed for the painter died before he finished it.

Inside, in the place where the transept usually represent the 4 elements dominated by the sky, the sculptor decided to represent the 4 Gospels : Matthew with a sculpture of a winged man, Mark with a lion, Luke with a winged steer, and John with an eagle.

The church is closed to the public besides the masses but a request can be done at the city hall.

During summer, the adventure game "Elisabeth Laurelot, the time adventurer" allows you to discover the story of the village around the church. More info at Cluses Tourist Office.
