Eglise St. Medard

Our neighborhood church is Eglise St. Medard.  The building was built in 3 sections dating from the 15th century to 1647.  The carved wooden pulpit is in the oldest part of the church, which is in the back half of the completed structure.  It is a very interesting structure, within less than 50 yards of the door to apartment building.
