ST. SPIRES CATHEDRAL
Read moreThe collegiate Saint-Spire was built in the tenth century to receive the relics of Saint Exupère, the first bishop of Bayeux, whose name was subsequently distorted in Saint Spire and Saint Loup, also bishop of Bayeux. This church was destroyed several times by fire and then rebuilt between xiie and the fifteenth century. She was the seat of a collegiate college until 1790, when she became a parish church. It was built in the cathedral in 1966: the creation of the Essonne department coincided with the creation of a corresponding diocese. Inside the church, you can notice the eighteenth century woodworks and furniture, as well as the gestures of Count Haymon, the masterpiece of the first church and death in 957. To note also the sculptures of the characters and animals of the sixteenth century that framed the door of the sacristie. The stained glass windows dated in 1946 because they were destroyed by bombing on August 13, 1944.
