석조 성당의 첫 번째 본당은 13세기경에 지어졌습니다. 당시 교회는 유서 깊은 지역 템플 기사단의 사령부(Le Temple-du-Breuil라고 함)에 직접 소속되어 있었으며, 이후 성 요한 기사단으로 이전되었습니다. (1572년) 종교 분쟁이 한창이던 시기에 교회는 위그노의 기물 파손을 겪었습니다. 개신교 군대에 의해 불타고 부분적으로 파괴되었습니다. (17세기) 오랫동안 지붕 없이 방치되었던 교회는 17세기에 상당한 복원 작업을 거쳤습니다. 벽의 상당 부분이 재건되었고 벽돌로 된 종탑이 재건되었습니다. 이 건물은 혁명기에 최종적으로 폐쇄되고 버려졌습니다.

현 건물은 템플 기사단(이후 구호기사단)의 옛 사령부에서 유래했습니다. 사령부의 예배당이 본당 교회가 되었습니다. 로마네스크 양식(12세기)의 직사각형 건물로 벽돌 종탑이 있습니다. 이 교회는 16세기에 옛 사령부의 일부 벽을 재사용하여 광범위하게 재건축되었고, 이후 19세기(특히 1857년과 1895년)에 수정 및 복원되었습니다.

[In Advent] "we hear in the Gospel the beginning of the ministry of John the Baptist. He appears in the desert and calls people to conversion so that they may prepare for the coming of the Lord. His call reminds us that Advent is not only a time of waiting, but also of interior preparation. "Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths" (Luke 3:4). John's message challenges us to examine our lives. What "rough paths" and "crooked roads" are there in our hearts? Where have we perhaps distanced ourselves from God or lost sight of our fellow human beings? John invites us to remove these obstacles and reorient our lives. But his call has not only a personal dimension, but also a social one: the way of the Lord is a way of justice, peace and reconciliation. When we pave the way of the Lord, we bring light into the darkness of the world and hope into the hearts of people." (Text: Michael Inden, Diocesan President of the KAB in the Archdiocese of Cologne)

The community, often referred to as the "Order of the Templars" for short, whose full name is "Poor Knights of Christ and of Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem", takes us back to the 13th century. Founded in the Holy Land, it spread surprisingly quickly with numerous branches in many countries in Central Europe. The order gained notoriety through the fact that it was dissolved in 1312 by the French king and the pope and its members were accused of being heretics. The main reason for the dissolution, however, was not the human and religious misconduct (heresy) of the members, which was merely a pretext, but the legendary wealth of this order. King Philip IV of France (1268 to 1314) wanted to use this measure primarily to improve his coffers and secure its treasures.

Saint John the Baptist (Saint Jean Baptiste), to whom this church in Clermont-Dessous is dedicated, is - like Saint Joseph - a man on the threshold of the Old and New Testaments. His parents are Zacharias and Elisabeth, and after the announcement of the Incarnation of God through them, the Mother of God visits her relative Elisabeth, who will give birth to a son in her old age, namely John the Baptist. He is half a year older than Jesus and is considered his forerunner/pioneer. He lives in the desert, preaches repentance from sins to the Jewish population and baptizes them in the Jordan, where Jesus also comes to be baptized, and is filled with the Holy Spirit who descends upon him from heaven. The feast day of Saint-Jean-Baptiste in the calendar of saints is June 24, exactly half a year before 'Christmas Eve'.

Saint John the Baptist, to whom this church in Clermont-Dessous is dedicated, is—like Saint Joseph—a man at the threshold between the Old and New Testaments. His parents were Zechariah and Elizabeth. After the Annunciation of the Incarnation, the Virgin Mary visited her relative Elizabeth, who, in her old age, would give birth to a son, John the Baptist. He was six months older than Jesus and is considered his forerunner. He lived in the desert, preached repentance to the Jewish population, and baptized them in the Jordan River. Jesus also came to the Jordan to be baptized, and was filled with the Holy Spirit, who descended from heaven. The feast day of Saint John the Baptist in the liturgical calendar is June 24, exactly six months before Christmas Eve.
