The Collegiate Church of Saint-Quiriace, a majestic church of contrasting destinies, witness to a rich past.

The Collégiale Saint-Quiriace, a majestic 12thᵉ century church, was built at the request of Henri I of Champagne (1152-1181) and dedicated to Quiriace of Jerusalem, a 4th-century saint whose relics were said to have been brought back in the 13th century. A century later, its construction remained unfinished due to the kingdom's financial difficulties. The octagonal vaulting of the choir is a striking feature of the church, visible from afar in the surrounding countryside. A must-see!

Though Caesar's Tower is more famous, this church is equally magnificent and shouldn't be missed!

Elle est dédiée à saint Quiriace ou Cyriaque de Jérusalem, intimement lié aux évènements de l'Invention de la Vraie Croix par sainte Hélène.

Elle présente la particularité de ne jamais avoir été achevée, la réalisation de l’église dans les proportions données au départ étant trop coûteuse. Elle est située non loin de la tour César.
