On the left we see what the nave and sanctuary look like from the main doors, and on the right is a close-up of the sanctuary. Note the sedilia on the far right, just barely visible in the photo. Here&#8217;s how I described this place in my journal:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The interior architecture of the church was stunning. Heavy Gothic arches culminated in a beautifully proportioned sanctuary and side chapels. I especially enjoyed the fact that high on either side of the sanctuary were statues of Saint Michael the Archangel on the one hand and Saint Joan of Arc on the other. A beautiful, beautiful church.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1702\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/53334176391_f600947b4a_4k-copy-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18751\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/53334176391_f600947b4a_4k-copy-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/53334176391_f600947b4a_4k-copy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/53334176391_f600947b4a_4k-copy-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/53334176391_f600947b4a_4k-copy-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/53334176391_f600947b4a_4k-copy-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/53334176391_f600947b4a_4k-copy-1536x1021.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/53334176391_f600947b4a_4k-copy-2048x1362.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Date: <\/strong>29 August 2023 <br><strong>Place:<\/strong> Montredon, Lot D\u00e9partement, Region of Occitanie, France<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Maps!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"959\" height=\"619\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-12.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18705\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-12.png 959w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-12-300x194.png 300w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-12-150x97.png 150w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-12-768x496.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 959px) 100vw, 959px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1092\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-arrow-13-Figeac-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18704\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-arrow-13-Figeac-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-arrow-13-Figeac-300x128.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-arrow-13-Figeac-1024x437.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-arrow-13-Figeac-150x64.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-arrow-13-Figeac-768x328.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-arrow-13-Figeac-1536x655.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thomryng.com\/camino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/VP-arrow-13-Figeac-2048x873.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The church of Saint-Michel de Montredon was built in the late 19th century in a style that isn&#8217;t Gothic Revival so much as straight-up Gothic.
