As it is Sunday, time for a little religion

This afternoon, we visited Eglise St-Trophime.  This church sits on the Place de la Republic in Arles.  The construction of it began around 1100.  The carved doorway was added around 1190.  It is quite an impressive structure.

The carvings above the door, complete with angels, an especially comforting sight today
