Eglise Saint-Martin

Elevation : 364m
Place de l'Eglise, 42330 Cuzieu
There was a parish church in the name of Saint Martin in Cuzieu with a chapel devoted to Saint John the Baptist in the cemetery from the 13th century. The current church was built on the former chapel’s foundations and is called Saint Martin.
Information about the church:

The groins of the vault are on decorated capitals whose characters bear shields in Saint Martin chapel and the choir.
The choir’s stained glass dating back to 1890 was made by Saint-Galmier’s master glassmaker, A. Mauvernay.
The colourful wooden statues are of Saint Roch (protection against the plague) and Saint Isidore (patron saint of labourers).
There are 17th century frescoes in the choir (vase with flowers), in the wedding chapel (virgin in orange dress) and Saint Martin chapel (coat of arms).
