Description
First mentioned in 1275, Saint-Didier is a former Castrale church. Its Romanesque portal is semicircular. The arch rests on two capitals adorned with sculpted heads of "valentinois" lions.
Repeatedly altered, as evidenced by the Gothic choir, Saint-Didier church is surrounded by an esplanade whose surrounding wall is topped by statues of saints.
First mentioned in 1275, Saint-Didier is a former castral church. To the west, the Romanesque portal, concealed by a modern porch, features an arch underlined by a string of billets. This arch rests on two capitals decorated with lions' heads, a motif frequently encountered in the Valence region.
The interior is particularly noteworthy for the choir, which bears witness to a Gothic revival. The ribs of the vault converge on a keystone featuring the image of Christ Blessing in fairly flat relief, probably taken from the Romanesque church. To the north, the chapel vault is more recent and features elegant late-Gothic ribbing.
Although it has undergone many alterations, the building has a distinctive character, not least because of its position flush with the esplanade wall. The choir, which bears witness to a Gothic revival, corresponds to the former chapel of the feudal castle.
