ヌーシャテルにあるこの壮麗な教会は、「聖エティエンヌ」に捧げられました。彼はエルサレムの初期教会の最初の7人の執事の一人であり、「新約聖書」の聖書によると、初期キリスト教の最初の殉教者（血の証人）でもあります。教会は彼の死を12月26日のクリスマスの2日目に記念します。 使徒言行録が伝えるように、ステファノが「しかし、聖霊に満たされて、天を見上げ、神の栄光と、神の右に立っておられるイエスとを見た」（第7章55節）と、開かれた天の幻を大声で表明したとき、人々は非常に憤慨し、彼を町から追い出して石打ちにしたのです。

11th Century Church Worship was abolished in the parish of Chevain. The church was sold for 31,700 livres to the citizen of Villeray on 6 Vendémiaire, Year VII (September 27, 1799). The Chevain church, having been donated by Madame du Hameau de Villeray to the commune by notarial deed dated April 16, 1827, was restored to worship there on January 15, 1827. The parish was established as a branch parish.

Built at the end of the 12th century, the church belonged to the former diocese of Saintes. It has been restored several times, notably in the 15th century. Rectangular building with a straight chevet. A single nave with a ribbed vault. Sculpted column capitals. In the transept, a dome on pendentives. Chancel with a ribbed vault and a large 13th-century chevet window. On the north side of the chancel, a large pointed arch gives access to a ribbed vaulted chapel. The western façade dates from the 13th century, with a pointed arch portal with three arches on round columns. Two chamfered pilasters separate the portal from the blind doors and rise to the top of the façade. Above this ground floor and set back are three pointed arch arcades with sculpted figures (seated Virgin, shepherds guided by an angel, three wise men). On each side, twin arcades with pointed arches with heads, fantastic animals, diamond points and crockets. On the transept rises a square bell tower.

The place that gives its name to the surrounding forest. An abbey founded in 1145 by monks from the Abbey of Citeaux in search of silence and isolation. Now, only a ruined section remains, visible through the foliage from the road. Note that these ruins are located on the grounds of the oldest summer camp still in operation in France.

In the 13th century, a first church was built in the current Old Town, it was consecrated by Bishop Jean de Chanlay. The parish lordship, attached to the land and castle of Maleffre, belonged to the Paulmier du Bouillon house. Maleffre was a fortified castle, surrounded by moats. The parish owned several other fiefs such as Chevalerie and Bois Margot. The territory of Arçonnay extended to the river which constituted the boundary between the departments. The construction, by Abbot Drouin, of the current church in the hamlet of Saint-Blaise, was completed in 1848.

A first church was founded in 1070 by the Bishop of Le Mans, Guillaume de Passavant. The current building consists of a nave with two bays and an elongated choir narrower than the nave. The two aisles are unequal, the northern one being narrower than the southern one. A sacristy has been added to the east of the choir. The bell tower, almost square in plan, is located to the south of the choir, it is topped with a saddleback roof: it is the most authentic element of the whole, despite a very cemented coating. Three small bays with a pointed arch have been opened on the east side, two on the south side. The western facade, restored in the 19th century, has a semicircular portal resting on engaged columns with two Romanesque-style capitals. A tall semicircular window was opened late on the first level of the gable wall. The windows of the side façades are in pointed arches, their flamboyant network could date from the 16th century. The last bay of the choir is lit by a high semicircular window which dates, like the large façade window, from the 19th century. The interior of the church is covered with wooden barrel vaults whose decoration dates from the last century. The main altarpiece and the side altarpieces are of quality; the church has preserved its wooden pews. In 2002, the Sauvegarde de l’Art français granted a sum of €12,000 for the repair of the exterior plasterwork.

The Church of Saint Pierre and Saint Paul in Ancinnes is in its original part from the 11th and 12th centuries. It was modified in the middle of the 19th century by the addition of a transept which gives it the shape of a Latin cross. ​ The Organ of the Church of Saint Pierre and Saint Paul in Ancinnes was built by the Damiens brothers in the middle of the 19th century (1863) following the late 18th century. It was the work of Abbé Dubois, priest of Ancinnes from 1843 to 1865. This organ, built by the brothers Louis and Robert Damiens, organ builders in Gaillon (Eure) remains, today, one of the only survivors in the region in working order. It is a unique instrument due to its size, which can be heard as the Damiens brothers would have wished. They built 85 instruments, including 3 in Sarthe. The others were abandoned, looted or burned. Previously the Damiens brothers were wheelwrights, which explains the robustness and solidity of their organs. These organs were built to last. The Ancinnes Organ has about fifteen stops divided between two manual keyboards and a pedal keyboard of 13 notes and 850 pipes. The 12th century openings of the nave, alternating limestone and roussard, remain in the state of vestiges being walled up or enlarged in the 19th century. In the 12th/14th century, a door was opened in the gable while the bell tower and the choir rose, which retain pointed arches and trefoil tracery. Boucher built the North chapel in 1854. Chadaigne, from Alençon, repainted the entire interior around 1860 representing the Eucharist and the story of Saint Peter. A staircase tower was built against the bell tower in 1895.
