Hôtel-dieu, designed to care for the sick and protect passing travelers, became a church with a light interior.

According to legend, it was built at the end of the 12th century by Henry II of Plantagenet, King of England, who wanted to atone for the murder of the Archbishop of Canterbury. Today the church, the building was originally intended for the care of the sick, the reception and protection of travellers passing through. Austere and massive on the outside, the building will surprise you with its light interior (thin columns...). A fine example of "Plantagenêt" architecture.

L'Hôtel Dieu de Coëffort, dite église Sainte Jeanne d'Arc, présente indéniablement une belle architecture du XII ème et est, historiquement, le théâtre d'une belle découverte en 1953: Le trésor de Coëffort.
Cependant, j'ai assisté, récemment, au concert d'un ensemble pour voix de jeunes garçons de l'Académie Musicale de Liesse et je déplore qu'on autorise un concert de ce type dans une acoustique aussi compliquée.
L'écoute en a été très perturbée, pourtant, le chœur d'enfants de Liesse, de grande qualité, a bien eu du mal à s'y produire.
