Our Lady of the Assumption Church

Auvers-sur-Oise

Stand where Van Gogh stood and see the church he painted with those famous cobalt blues. The 12th-century Romanesque-Gothic building still leans slightly under an intense sky, just as he captured it in June 1890. Compare his swirling vision to the stone reality: the tilted angles, the diverging paths, the way afternoon light turns the cobblestones pink.
