User / Paul Anthony Moore / Église Collégiale Saint-Denis (Church of St. Denis), Amboise, France
Paul Anthony Moore / 12,904 items
In 1107, Hugues I of Amboise, lord of Touraine, began construction of the current church to replace an oratory built by Martin of Tours. The choir and transept date from this construction campaign. The nave and its aisles were added at the end of the 12th century. The apse was remodeled in the 15th century by the addition of two side apsidals. The south aisle was doubled in the 16th century. The bell tower located at the crossing of the transept collapsed in the 18th century, but was immediately rebuilt.
