From the 11th century, only the lower part of the bell tower remains. The church was rebuilt in the 14th century in the Gothic style. Since then, the church has undergone only partial alterations and restorations. Church with an elongated plan. Nave flanked by two side aisles. Polygonal chevet flanked by a small building. Bell tower flanking the left side aisle with a double gable roof topped by an octagonal spire. Pointed arch portal with voussoirs, surmounted by a polylobed rose window. Pointed arch bays. Buttresses flanking the building.

The church of Saint-Germain-des-Grois, dedicated to Saint Germain, is a charming church in the canton of Rémalard in the heart of Perche. Built in the Romanesque style with its 12th-century choir, it was considerably enlarged during the 15th and 16th centuries, the periods in which the construction of the side aisles took place. The church was under the jurisdiction of the abbey of Saint-Lomer-de-Blois for its presentation to the parish priest. Its curious exterior volume attracts even more attention as the right wing of a building adjoining the church largely obscures the left side of its façade, in line with the aisle; this construction, moreover, resembles that of an old priory. The building consists of a nave of three bays, flanked by side aisles opening onto the central nave through large arches with a broken profile resting on large circular piers and a choir of one bay in the extension of the central nave ending in a flat chevet. A modest sacristy adjoins the building to the southeast. Outside, the side aisles are covered with successive gables, with the exception of the first bay of the north aisle covered by a square-plan, squat bell tower whose exterior volume, close to that of a bell tower, barely dominates the roof of the building which leans against its base. The three gables covering the right aisle do not follow an identical profile, the slope of the framework and the roof of the first of them, to the west, having been the subject of a significant restoration in the 19th century. At the same time, the two gables of the north aisle were also restored. As for the choir, of smaller volume, it has retained on its north and south sides a cornice with modillions; it constitutes the oldest part of the building. Inside, the nave is covered with a recently restored paneled vault, while the side aisles are vaulted on ribbed vaults, the ribs of which are received by ornate corbels. The church is lit thanks to the large bays with radiating tracery pierced in the walls of the side aisles. Among the notable elements of the furniture, it is worth mentioning the two monumental stone altarpieces which adorn the side altars, works of the 17th and 18th centuries; that of the south aisle houses statues of Saint Sebastian, Saint Joseph and Saint Germain and a finely worked gilded wooden tabernacle from the 17th century, with a dome and small columns. For drainage, the restoration of the masonry, particularly the buttresses, and for the restoration of the lower roof of the bell tower, the Sauvegarde de l’Art français granted a grant of 70,000 F in 1999.

The Saint-Martin church, listed as a Historic Monument, is located in Nocé, Normandy. It was probably built in the 12th century near the ruined and abandoned Nocé castle after the Hundred Years' War. Originally, the church was surrounded by a cemetery that was moved in the 18th century. In the 15th century, the walls were razed and the Romanesque framework of the nave replaced by a new paneled framework. In the 16th century, after the troubles of the Hundred Years' War, the building was modified: a single large roof was built in place of the various previous volumes and the framework was transformed, a new chapel was added against the south facade and a stone bell tower was built to the right of the nave. This tower, square from base to top, stands twenty meters high. The church is composed of a rectangular nave, three bays and a choir with a Romanesque semicircular chevet. A succession of three chapels opens a side aisle separated from the nave by pillars. The chapels are covered with ribbed vaults. A sacristy is fitted out behind the church. Note the altarpiece and the tabernacle in painted and gilded wood with steps, installed in the choir and lit by two bays with tracery, a painting presenting the disciples of Emmaus and one of the Annunciation, as well as a polychrome terracotta statue and a stone statue of Saint Madeleine without forgetting a stone statue of Our Lady of Pity.

With a very simple plan, with its tiled nave and its small slate bell tower on the ridge, the church surrounded by its cemetery, set back from the road, overlooks the countryside planted with trees. The river is nearby, and its flowing water evokes that of the baptism of Jesus in the Jordan, as soon as we see the statue of the patron, Saint John the Baptist, in the choir. His arm raised towards the sky reminds us of his preaching in the desert of Palestine: "Prepare for the coming of the Messiah...". On the thin banner attached to his staff are written the words: "Ecce Agnus Dei", by which he already announced that he saw in Jesus the victim freely offering himself as a sacrifice for the Redemption of all men. Placed on the ground against the wall, a 17th century painting. depicts Jesus immersed up to his knees in the waters of the river, leaning with his hands crossed on his chest to receive the baptism of penance from the hand of John kneeling on the bank. We see “the Spirit descending on him like a dove” and we recall the words of John reported in the Gospel: “I am not worthy to bow down at his feet… I have baptized you in water; he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit.” Beside him, the angel wearing Jesus’ clothes turns his face towards a young child whom he guides with a hand placed on his shoulder, as if to teach him the profound meaning of baptism. Above the arch through which the nave opens onto the choir, the group of Christ on the cross surrounded by Mary and Saint John the Evangelist is a fine example of 16th century religious sculpture, faithful to traditional iconography. Similarly, at the back of the nave is the charming naive statue of Saint Fiacre: this young monk from Ireland loved to cultivate the vegetable garden of his monastery, near Meaux. Patron saint of gardeners, he holds his spade, and in the Perche region he was also invoked to cure various illnesses. More unique in style, the large Renaissance chest serving as a central altar was the former “work bench of the factory” reserved for the administrators of the parish’s resources and expenses. Let us admire the skill and imagination of the cabinetmaker who carved this series of full-length figures in oak under the arcades separated by “terms” inspired by Roman antiquity. Their distinctive attributes make us recognize Saints Christine, Barbara, Madeleine and Catherine on the front, and on the sides Saints Peter and Paul on the right, John the Baptist and Bartholomew on the left. Their silhouettes are more reminiscent of fairy tale characters…
