SAINT-PIERRE-SAINT-PAUL CHURCH
Go there and contact
Church housing the tombs of Empress Josephine and her daughter, Queen Hortense.
If the first parish of Rueil probably dates back to the 8th century, a church is only attested in the 12th century. Ruined by the Hundred Years' War and the English occupation in the 15th century, it was largely reworked. Nevertheless, it kept its original bell tower until the 19th century. This church, classified as a historical monument, houses the tombs of the Empress Josephine and her daughter, Queen Hortense. One can also admire the magnificent organ case offered by Napoleon III.
