After Brioude we visited another beautiful village, Lavadieu. Of major interest was the parish church, formerly part of an abby, Romanesque again, and its 14th century frescoes.

Scenes about the village |
 |
Lavadieu is too small to have it own bakery, but it does have this bread vending machine |
 |
And the periodic market consists of this truck, which held an astonishing variety of items |
 |
The little parish church is primarily Romanesque, and held frescoes and other items of interest |
 |
Mostly Passion scenes |
 |
But note this: the only known representation of Death as a woman |
 |
Standard jaws of Hell |
 |
Interesting village |
