Church of Saint-Germain

   The church of Saint-Germain in Guéron was largely rebuilt during the 19th century in the neo-Romanesque style. The tower originally part of the south wall of the choir, was replaced at that time by a combined west tower and porch. The building retains its Romanesque chancel, which culminates in an apse. The latter, like the one at Carcagny, is of a remarkable quality for a small rural church.
