SAINT-MAURILLE CHURCH
Church built on the site of a former chapel, with capitals decorated with foliage, animals ...
Its beautiful Renaissance facade is set on the Chanzy street. His steeple is almost a shadow of his three magnificent richly carved portals due to Jean Laurent at the time of the religion wars. Built over time, on the location of an old chapel, its evolution followed that of the city, one side added to another, such as a new page of history. From the Gothic nave - 1968 th century - to the stained glass windows from the Simon Marcq workshops of Reims - -1989 - by the side chapels added at the end of the th century, without forgetting the-, the visit of Saint-Maurille is a real voyage over time, all the styles associated with it. Inside, capitals adorned with foliage trees, animals or recalls and the funeral slab of Baudouin of Vandy are discovered. Saint Maurille, the th century bishop who prepares Gaul to become Christian France, was given as a patron at this church in the th century. At this time, the pilgrimage of the Saint-Maurille fountain, which will take place until the end of 1967, will take place. This was attributed to thousands of healings, especially children.
