 Site-Map What's New
The village of St. Papoul, France has a population less than 1000 persons. It is an ancient village, founded with an abbey built there in the 8th century. Some sections of the church still stand that were built in the 12th century. In addition to the church's distinguished age, it boasts a fine collection of carved stone figures that are attributed to the Master of Cabestany. This sculptor is believed to have lived in the latter half of the 12th century. His identity is unknown. Although his work has survived all these many hundreds of years, it has only been within the last 100 years that his collected works have been attributable to him, a singular artist. His work spans across southern Europe and has become quite famous for its distinctive style. I hope you enjoy the Slideshow or simply browsing the individual photos of St. Papoul below.
