ST. BASIL'S CHURCH
Raised around 1020, but completely rebuilt in the next two hundred years, this church then undergone many changes until the sixteenth century. She was the parish church of Etampes, when the very near Notre-Dame-du-Fort was a seigneurial church. The Western novel portal is distinguished by its last judgment; We can see shells, recalling the important stage of Etampes in the Middle Ages on the road from Paris to Compostela by Orléans and Tours. The Renaissance portal harmonizes with the "Diane de Poitiers" hotel that faces him. In the southern part of the building, a false window added to the harms has misled the eye since the Renaissance. On the side of the choir, the verrière of the Crucifixion dating back to the sixteenth century is remarkable. The large orkes date back to 1847, but they are built on a Louis XV drum.
