This church dates from the 12th century. It was restored around 1600 and then remodeled in the 18th century. The church's bell tower was listed as a historical monument by decree of October 22, 1913. The bell tower was struck by lightning in 2019, damaging the spire. Repairs were approved by the municipality in 2021. The 19th-century bells were also listed as historical monuments that same year.

The Saint-Aignan church in Veaugues is a Catholic church located in the Cher department, in the Centre-Val de Loire region. It is dedicated to Saint Aignan, bishop of Orléans in the 5th century. The current church was built in the 19th century, on the ruins of an old 12th century church. It was designed by the architect Leclère, in a neo-Gothic style. The Saint-Aignan church is a masterpiece of neo-Gothic architecture. It is built in cut stone, and has an imposing façade with two twin towers. The interior of the church is also remarkable, with its Gothic vaults, stained glass windows and sculptures. The Saint-Aignan church is unique in its kind by the presence of a tribune organ from 1889, built by the Aristide Cavaillé-Coll factory. This organ is considered one of the most beautiful in Europe

Majestic, it dominates the city of Bourges. The Saint-Étienne Cathedral, listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO since 1992, is unique in its design. A masterpiece of Gothic art, admirable for its proportions and the unity of its design, it bears witness to the power of Christianity in medieval France. When you take a look at this large ship, you can only be surprised by the length of its nave and the absence of a transept, which mark its uniqueness. The Cathedral houses a rare set of stained glass windows dating from the 13th to the 17th century. Climb the 396 steps of the north tower or "Butter Tower"; at the top of it offers a surprising perspective of the cathedral and a panoramic view of the city. Accessible only in July and August.
