Church of Notre-Dame, Ferte-Milon
This church was originally called the Chapelle Fouquet and was part of the great enclosure of the castle. At the request of the Milonais, who found the Chapel of Saint-Waast too far from the upper town, Catherine de Médicis had a semi-circular chevet sanctuary with five windows adapted by the architect Philippe de l'Orme (architect of the Louvre) in 1563.
About this building
The entrance portal is characterized by a tower-porch with a square base, which is reminiscent of Gothic architecture. The arms of the transept, with a Latin cross plan, end in an open gable.
