Church of Notre-Dame

Bourges, FR

Like other monuments and a large part of the city, the church was destroyed during the great fire of the Madeleine in July 1487. It was therefore rebuilt in the 16th century, around 1520, the nave having been extended by a fifth span and according to a tradition that has not been historically verified, and it was the local architect Guillaume Pelvoysin who built the north tower. In the seventeenth century, the side entrance to the south was restored in the style of the time, i.e. with Corinthian columns that give a touch of classics. On 27 May 1562, when the Huguenots entered Bourges, it was again pillaged by the troops of the Count of Montgomery.
