Church of Aveize Close Up
A close look at one of the the hexagrams above one of the windows of the church of Aveize, a village in the Rhone Alps which was built in 1884. There are many such windows in this church and above each one there's this six pointed star space made by expert stonecutters surrounded by a splendid stone arc.
