The original Marian shrine "La Salette," which is referred to in this patronal feast, is located in the French Alps (Grenoble district) and is an important Marian shrine, even if it has not achieved the same level of fame as other pilgrimage sites honoring the Mother of God—such as Lourdes in the French Pyrenees or Fatima in Portugal.

Of Romanesque foundation, the church of Saint-Maurice-lès-Charencey, dedicated to Saint Maurice, was remodeled at the end of the Middle Ages and then extensively renovated in the 19th century. It consists of a nave of four bays ending in a semicircular apse. This nave constitutes the oldest part of the building onto which several elements were grafted to the north. The building is indeed flanked on this side by a side aisle opening onto the nave by a series of large arches with a broken profile. This side aisle, the first bay of which serves as the base of the bell tower, opens onto the north arm of a transept of which only this part was built or remains. Its construction probably predates that of the side aisle, as would tend to prove, thanks to the careful examination of the framework, the presence of an old valley ridge, visible under the current roof. During the Restoration, the church's western façade was completely rebuilt; the current bell tower, likely erected in place of an older one, belongs to this same renovation project, which can be dated to 1821 according to an inscription inserted in the gable wall. Finally, a sacristy was built later in the northeast corner of the building, against the apse and the transept arm. Constructed of rubble stone covered in some parts with an old lime render, and in others with a hydraulic binder-based render that was quite unsightly and would eventually deteriorate, it rests on a basement partially uncovered during the work on the western façade. Its current slate roof does not appear to be original: the church was once covered with flat tiles. Several types of bays bear witness to the successive interventions in the building: the choir retains three examples of small, semicircular bays made of Grison stone, two of which were partially walled up during the installation of the great high altar and altarpiece in the choir. The workmanship of the other bays pierced in the south wall, with their broken profiles and brick frames, testifies to 19th-century work. As for the stones and limestone latticework of the large window, of fine quality, with flamboyant tracery that illuminates the north arm of the transept, they show worrying alterations. While the exterior of the church attracts little attention—its unfinished and rather unsightly surroundings contribute to this—the interior presents a rich and interesting decoration. Indeed, the nave is covered by a beautiful, high-volume, paneled timber vault with a broken profile, the entire surface of which is decorated with stencils with highlights of red, blue-gray, and black. The hallmarks and tie beams are carved and painted. Emblazoned engolante heads decorate the central sections of the tie beams. The choir vault features a particularly elaborate blue scrollwork decoration, probably reworked in the 19th century, but of high decorative quality. The choir is occupied by a substantial high altar with a reredos, with three sides, which therefore does not follow the curve of the masonry and conceals the roof posts decorated with Ionic pilasters. The central panel, crowned by a pointed pediment, is framed by side panels with triangular pediments. Niches, pilasters with Corinthian capitals, and obelisks complete this work. The aisle is also covered by a paneled vault decorated with painted red, gray-blue, and black bands, with white festoons and plant motifs. For masonry, framework and roofing work, the Sauvegarde de l’Art français granted a grant of €18,294 in 2001.

The church of Cintray has been listed as a historical monument since June 15, 1920. This building contributes to the beauty of the Eure landscapes and the richness of France's heritage. Over the centuries, the buildings that have been grafted or agglomerated in the surrounding area have been built within the framework of a social structure: the parish. These buildings constitute references in terms of local architecture, because they are often made with local materials: tiles or slates (from the 19th century), stones (flint, Grison, Seine Valley, sandstone, etc.), bricks or cob, lime plaster and nearby sand or earth. This gives colors that often range from beige to brown or red, and volumes perfectly suited to the Normandy climate (roof slopes, etc.). These churches have been the subject of specific analysis because their surroundings are not completely urbanized. The empty spaces or breathing spaces nearby help preserve their setting. The site of the church is very interesting because, located between the Iton and the very refined village square, it offers, to the south, large visual openings onto the monument. These spaces, little or not urbanized, must be preserved.

The church was built in 1865 by Father Migorel, who supposedly had three visions of a church to be built on a hilltop at the junction of three roads. It was consecrated in 1867 and opened for worship. The octagonal tower, erected in 1871, is decorated with polychrome bricks and topped with four turrets housing statues of archangels.

With a very simple plan, with its tiled nave and its small slate bell tower on the ridge, the church surrounded by its cemetery, set back from the road, overlooks the countryside planted with trees. The river is nearby, and its flowing water evokes that of the baptism of Jesus in the Jordan, as soon as we see the statue of the patron, Saint John the Baptist, in the choir. His arm raised towards the sky reminds us of his preaching in the desert of Palestine: "Prepare for the coming of the Messiah...". On the thin banner attached to his staff are written the words: "Ecce Agnus Dei", by which he already announced that he saw in Jesus the victim freely offering himself as a sacrifice for the Redemption of all men. Placed on the ground against the wall, a 17th century painting. depicts Jesus immersed up to his knees in the waters of the river, leaning with his hands crossed on his chest to receive the baptism of penance from the hand of John kneeling on the bank. We see “the Spirit descending on him like a dove” and we recall the words of John reported in the Gospel: “I am not worthy to bow down at his feet… I have baptized you in water; he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit.” Beside him, the angel wearing Jesus’ clothes turns his face towards a young child whom he guides with a hand placed on his shoulder, as if to teach him the profound meaning of baptism. Above the arch through which the nave opens onto the choir, the group of Christ on the cross surrounded by Mary and Saint John the Evangelist is a fine example of 16th century religious sculpture, faithful to traditional iconography. Similarly, at the back of the nave is the charming naive statue of Saint Fiacre: this young monk from Ireland loved to cultivate the vegetable garden of his monastery, near Meaux. Patron saint of gardeners, he holds his spade, and in the Perche region he was also invoked to cure various illnesses. More unique in style, the large Renaissance chest serving as a central altar was the former “work bench of the factory” reserved for the administrators of the parish’s resources and expenses. Let us admire the skill and imagination of the cabinetmaker who carved this series of full-length figures in oak under the arcades separated by “terms” inspired by Roman antiquity. Their distinctive attributes make us recognize Saints Christine, Barbara, Madeleine and Catherine on the front, and on the sides Saints Peter and Paul on the right, John the Baptist and Bartholomew on the left. Their silhouettes are more reminiscent of fairy tale characters…
