Notre Dame de l'Epinay Church, Saint Pierre Sur Dives, Normandy, France


Notre Dame de l'Epinay Church, Saint Pierre Sur Dives, Normandy, France. Notre Dame de l'Epinay Church was once part of a Benedictine Abbey. A line called the Meridian line has been carved across the naive. It is flanked by the signs of the zodiac, and this indicates the position of the sun at noon. On Monday mornings this small country town bursts into life as the market commences in the large Market Halls, or Halles. Inside this barn like building is a beamed roof. The produce that is sold in the market includes chickens, turkeys and ducks. The hall was originally built in the 11th century, and was rebuilt after the Second World War. 290,000 wooden dowels, and no nails, were used in the construction.
