Saint Justine is a 1st century martyr in Padua. Baptized in Padua by a disciple of Saint Peter, she remained firmly faithful to faith in Jesus Christ at the time of the persecutions. For her faith, she was pierced with a sword. The fame of his so lively faith spread throughout the Roman Empire, as far as Gaul, despite the hostile climate towards Christians.

In Gévezé, the oldest remains of the church date from the 12th century, notably a bay in the south wall of the nave. The Sainte-Justine Church was rebuilt in the 15th and 16th centuries, of which it retains some elements of its framework, or even gargoyles and crossettes with fantastic animal shapes.

A tower had been built between 1614 and 1628. This one threatening to fall into ruins was rebuilt in the middle of the 19th century, in a different place: the bottom of the nave.

The Sait-Justine church housed two side altars dedicated to the Virgin and Saint Anne, made of stone and marble by the Rennes sculptor Bernard Dupont in 1637. They were demolished in 1783, by kind rationalist supporters of the Fraternal Republic and democratic.
