 Here is the Chapelle of the Laon's Commandry of the Knights Templar, it was built in the 12th century in 1134. After the end of the Templar Order it was given to the Knights Hospitaller's Order (Order of Malta).
 The gisant (recumbant statue) of Guillaume de Harcigny was however displaced to the near museum.

This is another beautiful photo from you, from what I know, this is the best preserved and oldest surviving Templar church in France. I think it is more beautiful than the Templar chapel in Metz, once again, your photo captures the beauty of this small building very well - thank you for sharing!
