Church located in the center of town, the only place of worship for the inhabitants of Argenton-sur-Creuse.

The first stones of Saint-Sauveur church date back to the XIIᵉ century, but the majority of what can be seen today dates from the XVᵉ. It was subsequently extensively restored in the XIXᵉ century in the neo-Gothic style.

Its high, openwork spire and cross-vaulted nave are particularly impressive. Situated right in the center of town, on the pedestrian street, it is also open for concerts. The choir is adorned with fine 19thᵉ century stained glass, created by the Charles Lévêque workshop in Beauvais (the same workshop worked on the Prissac church).

Eglise Saint-Sauveur 36200 Argenton-Sur-Creuse
L'Eglise Saint-Sauveur est située en plein centre ville de la ville d'Argenton-Sur-Creuse. Belle et élancée extérieurement, c'est sa haute flèche ajourée qui attire en premier l'attention. Je l'ai trouvée au premier abord assez austère mais très claire lorsque j'y suis entrée. La voûte d'arêtes de sa nef est remarquable tout comme les beaux vitraux qui ornent le chœur. J'ai également bien apprécié les Stations du Christ, représentées de façon naïve et touchante, et la copie de la statue de la Bonne Dame. L'orgue Cavaillé-Coll mérite également le coup d’œil, car il a été classé monument historique par arrêté du 9 avril 2002.
