Romanesque church built at the beginning of the 16th century, whose visit retraces part of the history of Fécamp.

Built at the beginning of the sixteenth century on the remains of a small Romanesque church, Saint-Étienne Church has a turbulent history. After the terrible fire of 1563, the original monument preserved only the south gate of Renaissance style (classified as a historical monument), transept, apse and choir, but the nave, owing to a lack of funding, was never completed. Notice on both sides of the portal marine graffiti, which attests to the piety of these brave men, always in search of protection from the dangers of the sea. The visit to St. Stephen’s Church is an opportunity to trace part of the story of Fécamp and to discover a slightly less touristy area in the city centre, just as charming as the seafront, and even more authentic.

Très belle église
Eglise à ne pas manquer pour ses superbes fresques. Elle surplombe Fécamp. Elle peut sembler massive de l'extérieur mais l'inérieur est très beau.

Pouvez-vous me dire si les plaques commémorative des marins figure bien au sein de l'église saint Étienne de Fécamp

belle et grande église. malgré les nombreux vitraux l'intérieur est plutôt sombre (appuyer sur le bouton en entrant). on notera particulièrement les toiles marouflées au dessus des arcades de la nef.

Belle église au coeur de Fécamp (à deux pas de la Place Charles de Gaulle). Elle vient d'être restaurée. A ne pas rater le jour de la Saint Pierre des marins (l'église est alors bondée des familles de marins).
