Summary[edit]

Description

Les Moutiers-en-Retz (Loire-Atlantique)

La chapelle de Prigny (anciennement église Saint-Jean-le-Baptiste).

La chapelle est de style roman et date du XIe siècle. Les armoieries au dessus de la porte ont été martelées à la Révolution, ce qui rend l'identification difficile.

Contrairement aux églises de cette période, celle-ci n'est pas orientée*. Elle est construite Nord-Sud.

En 1038, est fondé aux Moutiers-en-Retz, par le viguier* Judicaël et sa femme Adénor, un prieuré qui est donné à Notre-Dame du Ronceray d'Angers d'où étaient originaires les premières sœurs. (C'était la première église de Moutiers-en-Retz).

La chapelle est perchée sur un oppidum qui permettait de surveiller la baie, aujourd'hui devenue le marais breton.


  • Orientée, au sens étymologique : dirigée vers l'orient.
  • Viguier: officier de justice.
