The church, dedicated to Saint Denis, is located in the diocese of Chartres. It was under the jurisdiction of the Benedictine abbess of Saint-Avit in Châteaudun. It comprises two distinctly contrasting parts: a low Romanesque nave, 17 meters wide by 8.5 meters long, and a taller Gothic chancel, 14 meters wide by 10 meters long. The western doorway, with its semicircular arch, is framed by columns whose bases are molded with two tori and whose capitals are adorned with leaves ending in volutes. The tympanum is plain, surrounded by a molded archivolt, and externally highlighted by an archivolt decorated with a sawtooth pattern, similar to that of the nearby church of Saint-Maur-sur-le-Loir. The western gable, framed by flat buttresses, is pierced above this doorway only by a small semicircular window. The nave's side walls are reinforced with buttresses. The north buttress is blank, while the south one has three windows, two of which, long and narrow, may be original; the third was likely widened later. A side door was added on this side in the 14th century. The chancel, with its flat apse, is topped by a high gable whose sloping sides are decorated with crockets. The central window with flamboyant tracery was walled up to accommodate the large altarpiece. The north wall is blank; only two flamboyant windows with triple lancets illuminate this part of the building on the south side. The structure is punctuated by flat buttresses with offsets. A stone inscription indicates the date of its construction: 1550. Inside, the nave and chancel are not vaulted in stone, as the large number of buttresses might suggest from the outside. They are covered with panelled wooden vaults. In the center of the nave, four wooden pillars and a hexagonal framework support the slate spire that crowns the building. Among the interesting furnishings are a 17th- or 18th-century baptismal font, a painting depicting the Education of the Virgin, a pulpit, a churchwarden's pew, choir stalls, Restoration-era choir paneling, and, most notably, a magnificent and imposing altarpiece from the church of Saint-Germain-les-Alluyes, from where it was transferred in 1812. It is the work of Charles Roscoët, who also worked at the churches of Alluyes and Moriers. The Vitray altarpiece dates from 1669; its central panel is framed by double twisted columns adorned with vine leaves and surmounted by a Baroque pediment in the center of which is a statue of a bishop saint (Saint Germain) between reclining figures. The two wings of the altarpiece, right and left, are topped with twisted columns and adorned with shell-shaped niches intended to hold statues. In 2005, the French Heritage Society (Sauvegarde de l’Art français) awarded a grant of €6,500 for the restoration of the gable, the belfry, and the bell tower roof, as well as the installation of a lightning rod.

This church in Meslay-Le-Vidame, whose architecture reflects the formal language of antiquity, was dedicated to the patron saint of Saint Etienne. He was one of the first seven deacons of the original Jerusalem church and, according to the biblical accounts in the New Testament, the first martyr (martyr) of early Christianity. The church commemorates his death on Boxing Day, December 26th. As the Acts of the Apostles recounts: When Stephen recounted his vision of the open heavens, "And he, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God" (Chapter 7, Verse 55), the people were so outraged that they drove him out of the city and stoned him.

Notre-Dame Church, dedicated to the Virgin Mary and having Saint Anne for second patroness. This building, much altered over the centuries, has suffered greatly from a lack of maintenance. In 1747, Abbot Pilot, parish priest, mentioned the difficulties he had in having the choir, the sanctuary and the tower repaired by the Cathedral Chapter in charge of these works, the rest of the building being the responsibility of parish. On the south wall, there are Roman-style freestone frames. The large door as well as the side door are also. The other openings are in the Gothic style. In 1840, the apse of the great Nave was destroyed in order to "pass" the road No. 14 from Chartres to Orgères into the interior of the village, rather than bypassing it. If this church does not have a bell tower, since 1845, Hélène Augustine, a 522 kg bell, installed in the tower, calls parishioners during ceremonies. source: paroisselatrinite28.fr

I let you discover this beautiful building, the town hall with its exposed stones and a style that I like.
