Can’t say I noticed it

The Église Saint-Rémi in Ribécourt is a neo-Gothic church originally consecrated in 1887. During the First World War, the building suffered severe damage, as so many others in this region close to the front. Between 1927 and 1930, the church was rebuilt almost identically, as a symbol of resilience and reconstruction. Architecturally, the church is a fine example of neo-Gothic, with clear references to the Gothic style of the 13th century. Inside, the pillars are particularly striking, each made up of four half-columns, with capitals decorated with leaf motifs. The five-lobed rose windows and the high pointed arches reinforce the vertical character of the building. A special feature are the stained glass windows, dating from 1954-1955. They were designed by the French master glassmaker Pierre-François Chevalley and give the church a colourful, spiritual atmosphere that reinforces the liturgical character of the building.

Built by Count Nonant de Raray in the 18th century on the remains of an old castle, Ribécourt Castle was used as a prison camp in 1919. Its last owner, Miss Alyette de Lareinty Tholozan, was awarded the Croix de Guerre, then the Croix de la Légion d'honneur. In 1920, she donated the property to the Ministry of Veterans Affairs for the rehabilitation of the disabled. The residence, located in the commune of Ribécourt-Dreslincourt, now houses the Horticultural High School.
