The most beautiful religious buildings Eure-Et-Loir

No doubt, Voves is one of the leaders of the Beauce region! To confirm, wheats are forged on the monumental door of the church of the commune erected at the end of the th century. This is one of the peculiarities of this building, which is in the middle of the village. Other remarkable elements: the visible visible when entering the church. As a representative of the characters of the Bible, it offers superb colours on the nave which is to the choir and the wooden columns that stretch behind the altar. In the lateral chapel, a large fresco representing Christ attracts the visitor's eye.

The chapel was founded in the early th century by the lords of Montigny. It was from here in 1212 that the crusade of children led thousands of teenagers to issue the Holy Land. At the head of the crusade, a little shepherd from Cloyes named Etienne. Splendid frescoes of the th and th centuries decorate the whole. You will admire two almost unique scenes such as the adoration of the mages and the flogging of Christ.

If Saint-Via was Bishop of Chartres at the beginning of the fifth century, nothing remains of the préromane church that was there at the time, destroyed by successive fires. The church that can be seen today was built in the th century, in Gothic architecture towards the Renaissance. If this church is worth the detour, it is for its turret connected to the building by a driving rig, but also for its interior frescoes dating back to 1866: Green, red, yellow and gold blend in harmoniously.

Built in the th century, it houses a magnificent white marble sarcophagus that has contained the body of the local martyr. It also has a th century portal of finely carved wood, classified as historic Monument, as well as a remarkable structure by the sculptures that adorn the beams. At the end of one of them, above the chair, may recognize the profile of François I.

It was extensively restructured in the th century. The bell tower, previously in the centre of the roof, was rebuilt in the th century. At that time, the eleven windows were enlarged. Near the Meuvette, in the north-east of the village, lies the ruins of a former castle destroyed in 1793.

It dates back to the th and th centuries. Above the porch on the facade of the church, a wooden sculpture depicting Saint Martin on horseback, restored in 1981, deserves a visit. Close to the church, a small polygonal building guides the St. Martin source. His very famous water was served at the table of the Marquis de Laborde.

It probably dates back to the end of the th century, but the current building is much more recent. The portal dates back to 1770 and the collateral of 1556. There was a rich statuary of the first half of the th century and two th and th-century stained glass windows and a th-century carved wooden balustrade offered by Duke Louis de Saint-Simon.

It was built in 1659 by the father of the Duke of Saint-Simon. It is a beautiful baroque style. Inside, a th century organ is beautifully restored, with several paintings and a golden wooden reissue. According to the Duke's wish, he was buried with his wife in the church of La Ferté-Vidame. In the Revolution, the burial was desecrated and their bones thrown into the communal pit.

Take the RD 24. In a green setting, on the edge of a creek, the Chapel Chapel was built in the th, th and th centuries. Classified Historic Monument, she retained a collection of th century murals of exceptional wealth. In the upper register there is a frise of arabesques where flowers, fruits and birds blend in the median register,

The saying of the dead and the three alive, The story of Christ's passion, The temptation at Ascension, and the lower register The life of Saints and Martyrs.

Built in the th century, enlarged in the th century, it dominates the old town on its rocky spur; she kept her portal. Inside are two statues from the abbey of Arcisses, Saint Benedict and Saint Scholastic. Leaving the village, the Bell valley sees the winding rivers bathing many pastures where grazing cattle and horses, often emigration race.

Interesting construction with a main nave and a lateral nave and beautiful woodwork.

The Saint-Sulpice Church is certainly the most impressive building of Nogent-le-Roi. Along the street of General de Gaulle, surrounded by old wooden houses, it appears and marks the spirits. Built in 1494, it was part of the Saint-Jacques gate which defended the entrance of the city. Inside, the choir is beautifully surrounded by a grid and an interesting collection of stained glass windows.

The 1802 th century chapel was built in. Inside, the furniture comes from the old church Notre-Dame-des-Marais, in particular the Nativity Group.

A "macabre dance" in a églis, this may seem surprising. However, this is the case in the small church of Meslay-le-Grenet, which houses a succession of 20 characters painted in the main nave of the building: drawing on the xxx and covered, these paintings were restored in the th century. The "Macabre Dance" represents the equality of all orders of society - religion, army, leaders - against death and divine justice. Records are available in the church in several languages.

This th century church is classified as a historic monument, its steeple has been restored. Illuminations. If you wish to visit, please contact the initiative union.

The church Saint Peter founded between the xiiith and the xvith century traces the history of Dreux with its numerous Reconstructions. Indeed, built at the beginning of the th century, it was then renovated at the fifteenth century after the damage caused by several invasions of the city. In the sixteenth century, a North tower was added to this church, with the South tower still mysteriously unfinished. The ultimate addition dates from the xviith with the construction of the southern arm of the transept. Its architecture recalls the flamboyant Gothic style, in the image of the cathedral of Chartres. If you have the opportunity to return to this sumptuous church you can admire the th and th century windows. And by getting closer to the choir, you will have the surprise of finding yourself faced with a gigantic organ that leaves its most beautiful notes at office time. But don't stop there. Go back and admire above the portal the th century flower. You can then continue your visit through the transepts, the nave, in front of the chapels, or in front of the crucifix. This building has been classified as Historical Monuments since 1840.

Built around the year, this Romanesque building has only one small nave. Around 1400, a Gothic nave extends and enhances the first. The steeple of the 1927 th century has been classified in the Historical Monuments inventory since. We look at a very beautiful statue of Saint James stone dating from the th century, a Christ of the th century and a pietà of the th century.

Construite church, built in place of the castle of local lords from the th century, seems to keep memories of these feudal origins with its very surprising entrance. The door is surrounded by two surprising round towers that frame false windows, one of which contains a statue. Inside, a first paved space opens onto the church: at the bottom of the nave, a closed grid hides the altar. In front of this grid, niches contain white statues and, on the side, a black black throne. Just behind the church, a playground is open for children.
