Baptistère St-Jean Interesting : Michelin's recommendations

This baptistry, built in the mid-4C, is the oldest example of Christian architecture in France. Apart from the baptisal room with its octagonal pool, you will see some moving romanesque frescos that take on greater significance in the summer, when, thanks to Skertzo, they are projected on the outside of the building. Magical!
