    The Church of Saint-Rémy appears on the cartulary of the Abbey of Saint-Vincent du Mans, however, as usual, it was the Bishop of Le Mans who had the collation of the priest. Rectangular in plan, it has a single nave and a straight chevet lit by a triplet, which was hidden by the installation of a high altar. The church was enlarged in the 15th and 16th centuries by two chapels, placed to the north and south of the nave. The church has some remarkable pieces of furniture: a Christ on the cross and a Saint Anne, in stone, from the 16th century; the tympanum of a stained glass window, open in the south wall, depicting the angels carrying the Instruments of the Passion (16th century); a Pietà in stone from the 16th or 17th century; a Charity of Saint Martin, in stone (15th century). two wooden statues from the 18th century, Saint Leo Fort, pope, and Saint James (mistakenly identified as Saint Martin). Benefiting from a policy of the General Council of Sarthe in favor of contemporary artists, eight bays in this church were entrusted to Michel Madore (Montreal, 1949- ).

    The work focused on the restoration of the roof and the framework of two bays of the nave. The entire ridge was refinished in lead, including the simple finial, thus replacing the glazed tiles and the terracotta finial.
