The confessional in the Church of St-Romain in Saint-Romain-la-Virvée , a French parish in the Gironde department of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region , was created in 1730. In 1970, the baroque confessional was added to the list of listed buildings ( Base Palissy ) in France as Monument historique .

The 2.30-meter-wide confessional made of wood has carvings both as the top (rose petals in the middle) and in the door to the priest's area.
