The Saint-Pierre Church of Bréville-les-Monts is a former Catholic church which was unfortunately destroyed during the Battle of Normandy on June 12, 1944, and whose ruins remain in the commune's cemetery. The Germans used the building as an ammunition depot. A new church was built in 1960 next to the old ruins. The original structure had a modern nave and tower, with the chancel dating from the 15th century or earlier.
