CHURCHES,
the way of the baroque
The houses, poor and dark indoors, contrast with the churches of the chief town and Bonvillard, richly decorated according to the Baroque's styles. It isn't a hazard if, between the 60 churches and chapels of Maurienne's and Tarentaise's Valley, the Saint Maurice's church of the chief town of Orelle forms part of the "Way of the Baroque".
Symbol and pride of the villagers, the church, built towards XVth century, presents some altars and extraordinary tables, displaying to a style that we can find everywhere in all Alps.
