The statue of Saint Bernard at Clairvaux Abbey is a bronze statue made in 1921 by the French sculptor Paul Landowski. The statue shows Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, the founder of the abbey, in a praying position. The statue stands on a pedestal with an inscription that reads: "A saint Bernard, ses fils" (To Saint Bernard, his sons). The statue is a tribute to the influence and charisma of Bernard, who is considered one of the greatest doctors of the Church and mystics of the Middle Ages.

The parish church of Saint-Léger was initially built in the 12th century and then fully integrated into a new church in 1866-1867 during the restoration and extension work carried out by Pierre Lefranc, former architect of King Louis-Philippe, who had been elected mayor in 1860. The church contained a baptismal font from the late fifteenth or early sixteenth century. Since 1942, only a few fragments have been preserved, deposited in the pulpit gallery. These fragments have been "classified" in the inventory of historical monuments since 27 December 1913. The church also contains a tombstone dating from 1296, also "classified" since 27 December 1913, as well as the 12 objects listed in the General Inventory of Cultural Heritage. In addition, a wooden Christ from the twelfth century was found in 2010.
