Built in stone in the 11th century, this small church is considered one of the oldest in Perche. Romanesque windows, frescoes and medieval frames tell its long history. It is the place of a pilgrimage to Saint-Fiacre. Remarkable interior decor, wall paintings.
The church is located in a small cemetery, near a shady pond. The bare architecture of the church recalls its ancient origin. Built after 1059, on the remains of a primitive church, you can still observe the Romanesque windows blocked during the construction of the new 15th century flamboyant style windows. The very beautiful framework is then installed, then the Renaissance basket-handle portal. The fresco represents “The Tale of the Three Dead and the Three Living”, a theme widespread in the 15th century, following the great epidemics. Other paintings have just been discovered. The church contains a set of polychrome wooden statues and 17th century furniture. The statue of Saint Fiacre is the subject of a pilgrimage every year, on the Sunday closest to August 30.
