Saint-Pierre Church. The village is spread out over the Douze valley. The church, of large dimensions, is composed of two chronologically distinct parts: a Romanesque nave and, on the other hand, a false transept and a 16th century choir. Although the nave is not vaulted, it is supported by three almost flat buttresses which divide it into three "bays". The oldest parts of the construction seem to be the western part of the nave and a portion of the herringbone wall. The hypothesis of the Drouais and Thimerais Archaeology Society would be that the choir and the south chapel date from the 15th century and the north chapel from the 16th century. According to the Archaeological Society of Eure-et-Loir, all the transformations date from the 16th century: we would be inclined to agree with this latter opinion, given the size of the south chapel and the coherence of the whole of the eastern part of the church, particularly highlighted by the presence of a vigorous dripstone cordon that underlines the base of the building, structuring the elevation all around the chevet and the two chapels. The two chapels forming a transept are lit by two large windows: those of the south chapel are in a pointed arch, divided by a tracery into two lancets and a polylobed arch, perhaps traced during a later restoration. Three sculpted buttresses support this elevation, two were placed at the corners, the third between the two windows that light the chapel to the south. The applique of the west wall of the south chapel is very neat. The upper part of the south gable wall has been rebuilt, but the base in the lower part is also carefully dressed. The chevet built in fine stone is also supported by elegant buttresses. However, it is the chapel built symmetrically to the north that appears to be the most refined by the quality of its limestone with live joints, by the design of the buttresses and the tracery of the large windows. On the north side, the "door of the dead" communicating with the cemetery, was pierced on the west wall of the chapel. It is surmounted by a pediment, the jambs are decorated with pilasters, not protruding. It is certainly a seigneurial chapel. We enter the church by the west door under an 18th century porch covered with a beautiful frame. The door is also old. At the entrance to the church, we find ourselves under the stool of the frame spire. There may be remains of ancient decorations under the whitewash of the nave. A beam of glory separates the nave from the choir: it is a complete polychrome wooden ensemble, Christ on the cross surrounded by the Virgin Mary and Saint John and below, the Virgin of Pity. The work bench has been preserved. Inside the north chapel, we can see at the corners bundles of ribbed vaults which seem to be waiting for a vault which may have collapsed, or, more likely, which was never erected. In the south wall is embedded a pile whose capital, with an angel's head, bears the barely legible date of 1514. The high altar, from the 18th century, in carved wood, has been preserved in place; the painting of the altarpiece represents the denial of Saint Peter. The fragments of stained glass from the 16th century were removed during the work. The church preserves a wooden Education of the Virgin, split, a Saint Peter, a Saint George, a Saint Sebastian, a naïve Saint Eligius. The Sauvegarde de l’Art français granted aid of €5,000 in 2005 for drainage, masonry and framework repairs and tile roofing.
