Avallon - St Lazare

The Romanesque church of St- Lazare (12th C) in Avallon has two richly decorated doorways on the west front, fine examples of Burgundian Romanesque. The choir is on a lower level than the three-aisled nave. A door in the south aisle leads into the chapel of St-Pierre, a 15th C parish church. In the Grande Rue is a town gate of 1460 (clock tower).
