If you are not French, it’s likely you haven’t ever heard the word “Saintonge”, and have no clue what it means. If you are French, it’s probably the same thing. Unless, that is, you are a fan of Romanesque, in which case you know that Saintonge, that small region of France centered around the town of Saintes (hence the name), not far from the Atlantic Ocean, just North of Bordeaux... features the highest density of Romanesque churches of all the country! I had never visited that area of France, and so in the middle of October 2021, I took that long overdue trip and stayed two weeks in Saintes, driving left and right daily to photograph all the most significant Romanesque churches... and unfortunately leaving out many others, as they are so thick on the ground! The second place we are visiting today is the village of Fenioux, where we will indeed return later, as there is a noteworthy Romanesque church. However, today, our subject is this lean and tall tower called a lanterne des morts (“lantern of the dead”), built about 100 meters from the church. Such lanternes are few and far between in France. Their origins and reasons for being are still debated among historians, and most of those that are still standing are in the southwestern part of France. They were usually built in cemeteries, but this one is not. They are usually not very tall, maybe around 3 to 5 meters, but this one is almost 8 meters high and built on a site where Pagan rites were still carried out in the 6th century, as archæological excavations have demonstrated. There is a small round chamber at the top, where a lantern was supposedly lit (and visible through the slits), both as a “sign of respect vis-à-vis the souls of the faithful buried there” (as noted by Pierre le Vénérable, abbot of Cluny in 1190), and as a beacon to guide those lost in the night towards the safety of the village... except that the light could also guide bandits intent on attacking villagers under cover of the night... except that this lantern was not built in nor near any cemetery... As I said, many uncertainties remain as to the real purpose of these little towers, and as I read the comment by Pierre le Vénérable in Latin, I grasp that he himself is not entirely sure... ;o) This one in Fenioux was built in the 1100s and is the nicest and most gracious I have ever seen. No one seems willing to suggest a more precise date.

After the wonders of Moissac, I drove back North 125 kilometers to the small town of Souillac, back in the département of Lot but still in the old province of Quercy (and in the modern region of Occitania). According to unconfirmed local stories, the abbey of Souillac was founded by Saint Éloi († 660) before it was taken over by the Benedictines from Aurillac in the 900s. From that period, only the Western tower-porch remains. Less famous than Moissac, this abbey was, for me, at least as interesting, beginning with the church, which has not been altogether transformed in the Gothic style like in Moissac, but retains its beauty and genuineness from the 1100s, as I hope you will see through the photos I will upload. Sculpture is also at least as amazing at that of Moissac, and even more so in some respects —and it is in much better condition, for reasons that we will explore together as I caption the relevant photos. Listed as a Historic Landmark on the first list of 1840, the abbey is not on the path to Compostela and was never known for housing any particularly famous relics, which is why the church, dedicated to Saint Mary, has no ambulatory around the choir. I was very nicely received in Souillac by the local authorities as the photos I took contributed to the documentation of the nationwide crowdfunding project that is in place to restore parts of the church, under the ægis of the Fondation du Patrimoine (Mission Bern), for which I work as a pro bono photographer: www.fondation-patrimoine.org/les-projets/abbatiale-sainte.... The western wall of the church also houses this lovely and amazingly detailed short pillar which shows a lion and a lioness attacking a goat. As on “The Pillar of Souillac”, I recognize here the hand and genius of the Master of Moissac, both in the attitudes of the animals, both supple and extremely tense (reminding one of the ox and lion of the Tetramorph on the tympanum of Moissac), and of course in the manner in which animal hair is treated.
