休憩にぴったりの素敵な池

その起源は10世紀に遡るとされ、当時はサン・ティボー・デ・ヴィーニュに捧げられた小さな礼拝堂に過ぎませんでした。サン・ティボーがサン・ジュリアンとなったのはいつ、なぜかは不明です。ル・クードレの住民は当時、サン・マルタン・オ・ヴァルの修道院教会に集まっていました。サン・ジュリアン・デュ・クードレが教区教会となったのは14世紀末頃のことです。 教会は「長さ26メートル、幅8メートルの石灰岩と火打石の石積みの建物で、丸い後陣、優雅な簡素さを持つ入り口ドア、四角い鐘楼、円弧窓または低円弧窓があり、すべて側面の控え壁と角の控え壁で支えられており、明らかにロマネスク様式の影響を受けている。内部の聖歌隊席には、壁に円弧状に掘られた小さな洗礼盤も見られる（…）」 何世紀にもわたり、この教会は損傷を受け、維持管理が行き届かなくなりました。新しい礼拝堂を建設する必要が生じました。しかし、1998年から1999年にかけて、ル・クードレの自治体は構造全体の完全な改修に着手しました。屋根組み、屋根材、壁、ステンドグラスなどです。この教会は一度も廃止されたことはなく、いくつかの集会にのみ使用されています。 ラ・シャペル・ド・セーヌ（または小さな礼拝堂） 1893年まで「古いサン・ジュリアン教会」であった教区教会は、村から遠く離れた場所にあり、簡単な小道でしかアクセスできませんでした。1842年にル・クードレの司祭に任命されたブーシェ神父は、教区司祭館の中庭にあるパン焼き窯を、自身の費用で礼拝堂に改装する許可を市議会に求めることを思いつきました。これにより、悪天候に耐えることなく日々のミサを執り行うことができるようになります。1893年に、村の中心部に別の教会が、遠すぎると判断された「古い教会」に取って代わったとき、この礼拝堂はもはや存在理由を失いました。1905年に市の共有財産となり、1987年に自治体によって修復されました。

The main nave, ending in a semicircular apse, is preceded by a timber-framed porch and opens to the north onto a chapel through a wide archway. The timber-framed bell tower, clearly from the same period as the 17th-century wainscoting, rests on a base spanning the nave. A second nave is covered with quadripartite masonry vaults from different periods. Of a dressed stone tower, only the spiral staircase and the first level remain, built between the 11th and 13th centuries. The side aisle was built in the 14th century and enlarged in the 16th. 1660: Supposed collapse of the tower attached to the nave, of which only the first level remains. 1679: Paneling on the nave and probable construction of the small timber-framed spire. 19th century: Supposed construction of the timber-framed chapel. The church was under the jurisdiction of the chapter of Notre-Dame de Chartres (the chapter's name can be seen on the lock of the small door on the right and is painted on the walls of the capital with stars and the date 1733 L.M.M.P.).

Of Romanesque origin, the church, surrounded by a cemetery, has a curious bell tower supported by machicolations and uprights of sandstone, making it one of the most unique in the region. Perhaps it was originally a bell gable, later augmented by a platform supported by these machicolations? In front of the entrance, a small building called a "caquetoire" (a small meeting place) allows the faithful to gather and converse. Inside the church, the furnishings date from the 18th and 19th centuries: a marble high altar and its gray-painted wooden altarpiece (18th century) – a painted wooden altarpiece of St. Joseph (late 18th or early 19th century) an altarpiece for the altar of the Virgin Mary (19th century) a baptismal font in red-veined marble (19th century) a waxed wooden pew (18th century) a waxed wooden choir stall upholstered in velvet paintings: the Assumption of the Virgin Mary by Octave Hauser (1839) and the Annunciation (18th century) The stained-glass windows date from 1874. The church and the eclipse A bit of history: The parish, established in the 13th century, was part of the deanery of Courville. The church's patron saint, Luperche or Luperchius, gave his name to the village. We must go back to the 4th century to find the first trace of this saint: At that time, Dacius, governor of the part of Spain that included Catalonia, Aragon, and the Kingdom of Valencia, was one of the most cruel ministers of persecution. Incited by the emperors Diocletian and Maximilian, he had eighteen confessors of Jesus Christ executed in the city of Zaragoza. In their honor, the poet Prudentius wrote hymns, and among these confessors, a certain martyr named Luperche became the patron saint of our church.

At the exit of the village, you will notice the Saint-Aignan church; it was almost entirely rebuilt from 1895 onwards on the foundations of the old church after being destroyed by an unfortunate fire.

Avitus was born in Orléans and became a monk at Ménat in Auvergne. An abbot and pastor at heart, he was a model of selflessness and service. He was the third abbot of Micy (or Saint Mesmin) near Orléans. The hermit's life appealed to him, and he went to the Perche region with Saint Calais. He was a healing saint: in particular, he restored sight to a blind man and raised a dead man from the dead. His reputation grew, and his disciples encouraged him to found and build a monastery for them. He died around 530. His relics are kept at the Benedictine monastery of Saint Nicholas in Verneuil-sur-Avre.

The Church of Saint-Martin in Vieuvicq is a religious monument located in the commune of Vieuvicq, in the Centre-Val de Loire region. Although its existence is documented, available sources do not specify its construction period or the architectural or historical details that would place its origins in time. In the general context of the Centre-Val de Loire region, parish churches like Saint-Martin played a central role in the life of rural communities. They served not only as places of worship, but also as gathering points for social, religious, and sometimes administrative events. These buildings often reflected the local organization around the parish, shaping the landscape and the daily lives of the inhabitants.

According to biblical accounts, the apostle "Saint Jacques" was the first person to be executed for his faith, as recorded in the Acts of the Apostles, making him an early martyr (blood witness) of Christianity. His tomb in the town named after him, "Santiago de Compostela" (Galicia, Spain), is one of the most famous and important pilgrimage destinations in the world and is often ranked third after Jerusalem and Rome. Yesterday (July 25) was his feast day in the calendar of saints. When this date falls on a Sunday (this was last the case in 2021), the Catholic Church celebrates a special "Holy Year" there (extended by Pope Francis until 2022 due to the coronavirus pandemic).
