Saint-Lambert Church

This stained-glass window depicts two saints: one Saint Lambert and the other Saint Sebastian.

The stained-glass window consists of two vertical lancets topped with decorated openwork. Two saints are depicted, one in the dignity of the episcopate, the other in the ardor of martyrdom. The first, Saint Lambert, is on the left, in red and gold liturgical robes. He holds the bishop's crozier and a sword. The second, Saint Sebastian, is dressed in a cloak and partial armor. He holds a sheaf of arrows in his left hand and a palm branch in his right. The intense blue background highlights the silhouettes, framed by trefoil-shaped architecture in the 19th-century neo-Gothic style. The upper decoration is adorned with stylized flowers, palms, and leaves. This stained-glass window dates from 1887, as evidenced by the inscription visible in the lower right corner: "Gift from a member of the parish – 1887."
