Our-Lady-of-the-Calle in Dieulefit

dr_me_provencale_590Mentioned since 1031 in “Gallia Christiana” like a vault of the “vicaria” of Comps, NotreDame-of-the-Calle in Dieulefit, in ruin for a few centuries, has been in the cemetery, in the west of the city.










dr_me_provencale_591Built on a Gallo-Roman site, it presents nothing any more but some sections of wall in small apparatus, covered with ivy. In the east, the vestiges of the Romance church rest on older walls, between which one discovered parts of marble coating in “opus sectile”, and tombs concealing of the armours, probably those of Vesc which are buried here.











dr_me_provencale_594Indeed, the coseigneurie of Dieulefît was bet between the lords of Comps, then of Vesc and the Hospital ones of very close Midsummer's Day of Poët-Laval. Our-Lady-of-the-Calle was used to the wars of religion.










dr_me_provencale_593It had been restored at the time Gothic, which not its ruin a few years afterwards. In the west on the other hand, the analysis of the walls makes it possible to restore a building of polygonal plan.
