    Located in the small town of Richebourg, the Saint-Georges church has been listed as a historical monument since 1905. Gothic in style with its gargoyles, it is distinguished by the contrast provided by its bell tower-dungeon reminiscent of the Middle Ages.

      Almost nothing reliable is known about the life of Saint George (Saint-GEORGES), to whom the church of Richebourg was dedicated, but the veneration of him stretches back to early Christianity. A martyr who is equated with George is said to have lived in the third century.
      The legend of Saint George as a dragon slayer is well known and widespread, however, and he is usually depicted - in paintings or as a statue - as the conqueror of the monster, often as a knight on horseback.
      The memorial day of the very popular George - he is, among other things, the patron saint of the English kingdom - in the calendar of saints is April 23rd.
