Transept of Saint Hilaire le Grand Church, Poitiers (France)
France
The church of Saint Hilary the Great (Saint-Hilaire-le-Grand) in Poitiers (Vienne) - Nouvelle Aquitaine - France, stands on the site presumed to be the tomb of Saint Hilary, born in Poitiers in around 315, the first known bishop of the town, considered to be the one of the first theologians of the Western Church following the writing of his treaty on the Trinity. The church was consecrated in 1049. Saint-Hilaire-le-Grand is a step on the Way of Saint James and has been on the World Heritage List since 1998. We are facing the choir which has been refurbished in 1884 with new grids and mosaics on the floor and a new altar representing Christ giving his blessing surrounded by Saint Hilary, Saint Martin and Sainte Radegonde.

France is affectionately referred to as "the Hexagon" for its overall shape.French history goes back to the Gauls, a Celtic tribe which inhabited the area circa 300BC until being conquered by Julius Caesar.The Franks were the first tribe to adopt Catholic Christianity after the Roman Empire collapsed. France became an independent location in the Treaty of Verdun in (843 AD), which divided up Charlemagne's Carolingian Empire into several portions.The French monarchy reached its zenith during the reign of Louis XIV, the Sun King, who stood for seventy-two years as the Monarch of all Monarchs. His palace of Versailles and its Hall of Mirrors are a splendid treasure-trove of Baroque art.The French Revolution ended the rule of the monarchy with the motto "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity!" On July 14th, 1789 angry mobs stormed La Bastille prison and began the Revolution in which Louis XVI, his wife Marie-Antoinette and thousands of others met the guillotine.One decade after the revolution, Napolean Bonaparte seized control of the Republic and named himself Emperor. His armies conquered most of Europe and his Napoleonic Code became a lasting legal foundation for concepts of personal status and property.During the period of colonization France controlled the largest empire in the world, second only to Britain.France is one of the founding members of the European Union and the United Nations, as well as one of the nuclear armed nations of the world.Text by Steve Smith.
