Eglise de Saint Martin de Noët
To the north of the village of Saint Justin in the direction of Roquefort, stands this imposing fortified church. Plundered by Huguenot soldiers in 1569, it has benefited over the centuries from profound renovations. Today, the building makes an impression with its powerful walls pierced with Gothic openings, its robust square bell tower, a real defensive tower capable of defending the nearby valley of the Twelve. The 1870 porch encompasses the buttresses. The flat chevet of the choir, characteristic of the churches of Marsan, is decorated with a gilded wooden altarpiece with 3 monumental statues. A stained glass window in the choir is decorated according to the use of the donor's portrait.
