Church of Sainte-Marie

The Sainte Marie d'Avrainville church was built in the 11th and 12th centuries, but except for the entrance gate and bell tower, it was destroyed during the Hundred Years War. Rebuilt in the 15th and 16th centuries, the church has a nave extended by a semi-circular apse choir ending in two apsidioles and a massive square tower. Recently renovated, the church has become a popular cultural venue, thanks to its excellent acoustics.

The architect Mario Botta is the author of this construction.
The construction of the cathedral began in 1992 and was completed in 1995.

The construction of the Church of St. Dove dates back to the middle Middle Ages. The original nave was built between the 10th and 12th centuries before being demolished in the 13th or 14th century. The choir and the bell tower date from the 13th century. The framework covered with panelling dates back to the 17th century.
