Poitiers, St Radegonde
The glass mostly dates from c. 1268-1276, although
over the centuries therer has been much damage (e.g. the English in the C14 and the Huguenots in 1562). Much reorganisation
in the C18 and early C20. Windows 115 and 116 contain reset pieces. Window 111 dates from the early C20 in the
style of its neighbour 109.
St Radegonde was queen to Clotaire in the mid-C6, hence her distinctive royal Capetian dress with fleur-de-lys
in a number of windows (see king and queen for example in window 114).
