Tips from the Community

Geraldo Semifredi
May 12, 2026, Église Saint-Philippe-et-Saint-Jacques de Châteauneuf

The Church of St. Philipp and St. Jakob lies below the village and the castle enthroned above it on the southeastern slope of a rocky outcrop. It was built in the 15th century in one go, as evidenced by its style and architectural unity. During this period, the village experienced significant growth, thanks to the charters granted by Jean III. de Châteauneuf at the end of the 13th century, and the introduction of annual fairs by Duke Eudes IV. in the 14th century and by Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy, in 1459.

For centuries, Saint Philip and Saint James were celebrated on May 1, the day their relics were transferred to the Roman Basilica of the Twelve Apostles. Recently, they have given way to the humble Saint Joseph to comfort workers.

This church is so small that it is impossible to find it even on Google Maps.

Incredibly beautiful little place full of medieval charm. The (quite short) tour here is definitely worth it - try to use all the paths on the map - it's worth it. The castle is currently being renovated, but is simply impressive even from the outside.
