    Dated from the first half of the 12th century and placed under the name of Saint Julien, the church of Dornes was partly rebuilt at the beginning of the 16th century and finished with a canted apse.

    Its portal projects, three arched archivolts, two of which fall onto columns and capitals carved with leaves and animals. Its bell tower is square, it has a spire covered with slates, it occupies a central position, and has two bells, the bell tower is pierced with double arched bays, on each of its four faces, the bays are separated by two columns.

    On a slab in the church, the Epitaphs of François Manquat, first dean of the chapter of Dornes (founded around 1530), died in 1552, with a design of a very elegant chalice, and of Jean Vezier, one of the first canons from the church. Under the choir is a sepulchral vault of the lords of Dornes.

    The town bought the Dornes church on March 27, 1810. In the 20th century the church was renovated thanks to a subscription from the Dornese.
