ST. VIVIAN'S CHURCH
Church rebuilt and consecrated in 1358 in Rouen. The front part of the nave, located on the north side, dates from this period.
Established in the Middle Ages "outside the walls", this church, which has the particularity of not having a transept, is mentioned in a text from the time of William the Conqueror. It was rebuilt and consecrated in 1358. The front part of the nave, located to the north, dates from this period, as does the bell tower. After the Hundred Years’ War, a more ambitious project was achieved. The north nave was extended eastward, and two other naves, one in the centre and the other in the south, were rebuilt or created. Two other chapels were added in the 16th century. A painted decoration has recently been discovered, the vaults having been plastered in the 19th century.
