La Collegiale Notre-Dame et Saint Pantaleon

Turenne's history revolves around the Vicomte de Turenne and the church. Turenne was a a protestant village and refuge during the Reformation which occurred in the 1500's, then became Catholic during the contra-reformation of the late 1500's into 1600's. The Vicomte installed the Capucin order of monks into cloisters in Turenne, and the Collegiale was built during that time as well. In this picture, you can see the altar. It was installed in the church in 1678. If you'd like to see all the detail, just click on the picture, then go to the bootom of the screen and select "original".
