Saint-Antoine Church

About

Saint-Antoine Church was established in 1812 in the former Ursuline convent's refectory, with the aim of creating a parish church in the lower town that would be more accessible than Saint-Ours Church. Having been completely restored, including the works of art it houses, Saint-Antoine Church is a veritable “church-museum.” In a gallery adjoining the Church of Saint-Antoine in Loches, visitors can discover two paintings purchased from Caravaggio, the late 16th early 17th-century Italian artist, by Philippe de Béthune: The Supper at Emmaus and The Incredulity of Saint Thomas), as well as the precious 15th-century triptych by Jean Poyer and various ecclesiastical objects.
