The location of the church is special: high on the cliff offers a dizzying view of the sea and the chalk cliffs.
The church (12th century), with a 16th century portal, consists of two naves located next to each other. The choir of the large nave is decorated with an abstract stained glass window by Ubac and three oil paintings by Michel Ciry. In the southern nave, the stained glass window by Georges Braque depicts Jesse's tree.
next to the church and opposite the sea is the small, very poetic sailor's cemetery. The grave of Georges Braque (1882-1963) is located to the left of the entrance. This great Fauvist from Arguentueil, who, with his comrade Picasso, was at the root of the Cubist shock, had a studio in Varengeville. Not far from him is the musician and composer Albert Roussel (1869-1937) buried.

"Death may gladly tread through the realm of joy,
Gladly he presses his hand on flowery brows.
In ashes tomorrow and in torn garments,
with bowed head, the memory of joy will be a reproach and pain to us.
Funeral processions follow our games;
Saturnalia can be our cradle,
Woe to us!, only of dirges!"
Text: Victor HUGO, (1802 – 1885): "Ode sur la mort du duc de Berry" (1820)
