A church built on the remains of a chapel, located in Sceaux, with a neo-Gothic and neo-Renaissance façade
Built in the 13th century on the remains of an ancient chapel, the church burned down before being rebuilt in 1545, and grew in size as the population increased. The spire of the bell tower, which collapsed during the Revolution, was only put back in place in 1853, thanks to the Duke of Treviso. The façade only took its present form in the 19th century with the construction of the porch, whose neo-Gothic and neo-Renaissance additions are characteristic of the "historicism" of that period.

L'Église Saint-Jean-Baptiste est magnifiquement restaurée. Une église qui se mérite après tant d'années de travaux. Le mélange des mobiliers contemporains et anciens cohabitent parfaitement. On découvre un beau travail dans les décors peints, de magnifiques vitraux, des colonnes, des voûtes en ogive et son orgue restauré.

Superbe à l' extérieur comme à l' intérieur depuis les travaux. Curé intéressant par ses commentaires sur les Écritures

Havre de paix. Petite église qui, naturellement invite au recueillement.

La voûte est bien mise en valeur et le mobilier liturgique est très digne.
Très bon accueil.
La place de l'église est de style villageois, c'est très propre et agréable
