About this building

On the 12th century base is a 15th century sanctuary and the nave, dated 1774. It was completed by a central brick tower in the 19th century. A simple plan for the church, like many village churches around, it has charm, underlined by elements of interior decoration of great interest such as the mortuary altar of black marble, and the ceramic by the artist and Benedictine monk Dom André Bouton.

Church of Saint-Maurice is in the centre of the village, at the junction of five roads, and has two volumes of different heights. The lower one is the nave ; the other, higher and with no buttresses, with the air of a massive keep, has, in its lower level, a sanctuary which is perhaps Romanesque.
