Monolithic Church of Saint-Émilion

The Monolithic Church of Saint-Émilion was carved into the limestone hillside beneath the village in the early 12th century. Its nave and two aisles, about 38 metres long and 12 metres high, are cut from the rock as a single block, and a separately built bell tower rises above it. The church is still consecrated and can be visited only on a guided tour.
