Church of ancient foundation, mentioned around 969. The church, rectangular in plan, is composed of a main nave of four bays extended by a chancel with a flat apse of two bays; the nave is covered by hull paneling; the choir is ribbed vaulted (16th century); the main vessel is flanked to the northwest by a three-story square bell tower. In the 16th century, the main vessel was increased by an aisle of three bays following the bell tower, with ribbed vaults. The joining pillar between the choir and the first aisle bay is decorated with a small commemorative mural of the priest Lemaçon who embellished the church (1612).

Of Romanesque origin, it houses several works classified as objects. It was built in several stages: in the 12th and 13th centuries, as evidenced by its counter-broken porch visible after passing the first door of the bell tower, then in the 15th and 16th centuries with the construction of the bell tower, the opening of fitted side doors in the foothills (unique in the region), and its widening to the south with the opening of two Renaissance style bays with stained glass windows listed in 1905, representing Saint Michael and his two donors, Saint Catherine in the center with the reconstituted coats of arms of a seigneurial family of La Rouge: the Le Roy de Chavigny, finally a pietà. The church played a protective role for its population during peasant revolts but also during banditry. It was equipped with a high square bell tower with four windows at its top to monitor the surroundings, a bretèche above the main portal and an airlock for its two side doors protected by its thick buttresses. The apse is flat as in many small country churches. Two windows were opened to the north to provide more light in 1790. After the revolutionary turmoil, a 17th century altarpiece (classified in 1968) from the Récollets de Cherré near La Ferté-Bernard was installed.

The first part of the church, a wide and short nave (slate roof) dates from the 11th century. It shows a device marked by the use of russet and monolithic arch bays characteristic of the beginning of the 11th century. During the Renaissance a new choir was built and the Romanesque bell tower was raised. The nave received new windows, the main portal was rebuilt and the elevation of the stone bell tower began on the left annex. The interior of the church was restored in the 1990s by the Cormes Heritage Committee. Schedules Monday, Thursday & Friday: 4:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. Tuesday: 5:00 p.m. -7:00 p.m. Wednesday: 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.

The church, built in the 12th century in the Low-Norman Romanesque style, was remodeled in the 15th century and the 18th century. A funeral chapel was built there in 1768. The building was registered as a historic monument on June 17, 1991.

This door probably existed from the origin of the fortification of the city. The current building was however rebuilt, at the same time as the enclosure, around 1480. It has a function that is both ostentatious and legal. It actually served as a place of collection of the granting (tax on goods) under the Old Regime. Its monumentality and its decor express the importance given to the city at the time.
