The church near the sea, photo from: Talmont sur Gironde, Charentes

The church of Talmont is so close to the Gironde estuary that it threatened to collapse into it and strong walls had to be built at its base to consolidate it in the 1970s. It dates back from the 11th century.
The bent tree before the church shows you how much the wind blew on the day we visited Talmont.
