13세기부터 샤르트르 근처 생페르 수도원의 부속물로 언급된 노트르담 데 에티유 교회는 세 개의 서로 다른 부분으로 구성되어 있으며, 가장 놀라운 것은 3단으로 된 사각형 종탑으로, 슬레이트로 덮인 종루와 작은 등불이 얹혀 있습니다. 1577년에는 개신교도들이 이곳에서 설교를 했다고 합니다. 창립 이래 이 교회는 여러 차례의 변형을 겪었으며, 특히 합창단의 장식은 비교적 최근의 것으로, 석고로 된 맑은 날의 적운이 얽혀 있어 초기 석벽과 뾰족한 아치형 개구부를 짐작하게 합니다. 아름다운 플랑부아양 양식의 문이 서쪽으로 열려 1995년에 개조된 광장으로 이어지며, 동쪽 부분인 성구실 쪽에는 합창단의 경사면을 장식하는 가고일 줄이 보존되어 있습니다. 이 교회는 14세기 양식을 특징으로 하는 뚜렷한 엉덩이 기울기, 얼굴 표정, 망토의 주름이 돋보이는 아기 예수와 함께 있는 성모 마리아 상으로 유명합니다.

르 쿠드레 오 페르슈 교회의 건축은 12세기로 거슬러 올라가지만, 16세기에는 더 높은 석조 아치형 천장을 가진 성가대석이 증축되어 확장되었습니다. 내부는 역방향 배의 네이브 구조와 그 위에 그려진 천장, 그리고 역시 그려진 4개의 아름다운 들보가 특징입니다. 또한 석조 세례반과 비늘 모양의 나무 덮개에는 천사 머리 조각이 있습니다. 모든 창문은 르네상스 시대에 흔히 그랬듯이 개조되었습니다. 19세기에는 수녀 학교 아이들을 위한 갤러리가 건설되었습니다. 그 위에는 “어린아이들이 내게 오는 것을 용납하라”는 스테인드글라스가 있습니다. 성가대석 창문의 개구부는 몽그라함 성의 소유주인 에낭 공작의 관대함 덕분에 주 제단화의 변경으로 이어졌습니다. 따라서 제단 중앙으로 내려오는 아름다운 스테인드글라스는 교회의 수호성인의 이야기에 관한 것으로, 성 베드로에게 열쇠를 건네는 예수의 모습입니다.

Religious building dating back to the 11th century and expanded during the Renaissance. The first parish church of Nogent-le-Rotrou dates back to the 11th century, and its expansion dates from the 15th and 16th centuries. Beautiful bell tower topped with a lantern surrounded by an ornate gallery.

The Church of Saint-Pierre, under the Ancien Régime, part of the deanery of Bellême, in the diocese of Sées, is located in the heart of the village of Saint-Pierre-la-Bruyère, in the Perche region. This building features a relatively high nave, surmounted by a slate bell tower, extending into a square-plan choir, much lower, flanked by a rectangular chapel to the south. The façade is supported by four powerful buttresses that appear to date from the late Middle Ages. It features a basket-handle lintel entrance door, dating from the late Gothic period. This door replaced a Romanesque doorway whose semicircular arch appears above the Gothic opening. It is surmounted by a pointed window. The northern drip wall is flanked, where it meets the western façade, by a brick staircase turret leading to the attic. The nave was built in the Romanesque period, as evidenced by the small round-arched windows in the upper part of the north drip wall. The bell tower is supported by four posts set within the nave's volume behind the façade wall. The three bays delimited by these posts are covered by a plastered wooden vault, lower than the nave vault, built in the 18th century. The triumphal arch is quite small. It is flanked by two finely crafted stone altarpieces. The choir is adorned with a large stone altarpiece with three sides delimited by four columns, surmounted by a richly decorated cornice crowned with fire pots. The high altar and side altars, in the same style, were built after the episcopal visit of 1706. They are a representative example of the quality of the renovations carried out in Percheron churches in the 17th and 18th centuries. A seigneurial chapel, built in the late 15th or early 16th centuries to the south of the choir, was converted into a sacristy between 1701 and 1706, to satisfy the observations made during the episcopal visitations. The arch opening onto the choir was walled up for this purpose. Aside from the altarpieces, the church contains few furnishings: an 18th-century stone Virgin Mary and a 16th-century baptismal font. The Sauvegarde de l'Art Français (French Art Protection Agency) granted €4,000 in grants in 2005 for the restoration of the roof.

The inhabitants of Margon can admire the church of Notre-Dame du Mont-Carmel, proudly dominating the old town on its rocky spur, at the corner of two green valleys. It was later given an aisle during the 16th century, but its Romanesque portal has been preserved. It reigns benevolently over the old cemetery which surrounds it and which has recently been enlarged due to the increase in the population of the commune.

Occupying mainly a hill dominated by a curious dome-shaped bell tower, the territory of Brunelles has a rich historical past, sometimes even bordering on the marvelous. If the very ancient occupation of the place is attested to in Bois-Jahan, the disappearance of the village of La Ferrière and its church of La Madeleine during the Hundred Years' War (14th-15th century), give the hamlet of Vieux Murs a legendary air... A fortified castle and a chapel below probably stood here. Furthermore, because the lords of Brunelles who were the vassals of the Rotrou, were required to guard the Saint-Jean castle, one of the towers of the Nogent castle still bears the name of the village today. Situated on a rocky peak, the Saint-Martin church is visible from afar. Built in the 15th century, most of it, including the spire, was unfortunately destroyed by fire, and only the stone choir with a semi-circular vault is original. The nave is lit on each side by three flamboyant-style windows, and in the choir you can admire the beautiful stone altarpiece that has recently been restored. You will also notice an oculus on the south face, found during the 1998 restoration campaign, and enriched with a recent stained glass window illustrating the Creation. Finally, visitors should not fail to stop by the relics of the young Alexander, tortured for refusing to renounce his faith in Christ, as were other saints called martyrs for this, from the Greek "witnesses". There are thus many relics in our churches: they can be found at the first origin of basilicas, often built on ancient funerary areas on the outskirts of ancient cities. The relics of the saints are to be considered as the very humble signs of what their bodies were, the evocation of their human condition: it is with their bodies that the saints acted, thought, prayed, worked, suffered and experienced death. The monastery of the Val d’Arcisses was the first foundation of the monk Bernard d’Abbeville, later called Bernard de Thiron, because the monks of St.-Denis de Nogent-le-Rotrou would not let him do it! Bernard had to settle nearby, in the parish of Gardais, under the protection of the bishop of Chartres, Saint Yves and de Rotrou, Count of Perche. He had been established in a manor located between Brunelles and Ozée. The Notre-Dame-du-Val-d’Arcisses abbey welcomed Benedictine nuns during the 17th and 18th centuries. Destroyed during the Revolution, all that remains is the gatehouse, a beautiful arch embedded in a façade. One of the monks' major works was to dig the Arcisses canal, a diversion from the Cloche: it irrigated the abbey's lands and supplied the fountain which flowed near the Notre-Dame church in Nogent-le-Rotrou.

The church has a Latin cross plan. It has a single nave and a flat chevet. A small building is attached to the chevet. A bell tower flanks the building. Buttresses support the drip walls and the gable wall. Pointed arch bays with tracery illuminate the building. The portal, in a low arch, has its external arched voussure.
