The Church on a Volcanic Plug

chapel

Volcanic forces created a rock formation 279 feet above the rest of Aiguihle, France. In the Tenth Century, local Christians built a church there -- the Chapel of Saint-Michel d'Aiguilhe. Visitors can climb 268 steps carved into the rock and get a scenic view of the town below. You can find more pictures of this striking relic at the link.
