Escalier de maîtrise en vis de Saint Gilles à double évolution
Situé dans l'église abbatiale de Saint-Gilles-du-Gard, l'escalier en "vis de Saint-Gilles" est une référence architecturale connaissant une importante postérité grâce à son ingéniosité structurelle. Édifié au XIIᵉ siècle, cet escalier hélicoïdal se distingue par son impressionnante conception, ne reposant sur aucun support central.
