The parish church of Entrecasteaux, dedicated to Saint Salvator, already existed at the beginning of the 11th century when the place is first documented in 1012. The current church would therefore be the second, built in the 13th century in Romanesque style. It was subsequently rebuilt several times, especially in the 17th century, when a new nave was built on the north side and the bell tower was added.

This church was not dedicated to one of the many people whom we venerate as blessed or saints and ask for their heavenly intercession with God, or - like so many French churches - to the Mother of God ("Notre-Dame"). The chosen patronage here was the incarnate Son of God, Jesus Christ himself, and the church in Entrecasteaux was consecrated to him under the title “SAINT SAUVEUR” – i.e. as the Redeemer and Savior.
