Catholic church - ND-de-l'Assomption in Marchainville ⛪✨🕊️
Highlight • Other
Notre Dame is the traditional French name for The Most Holy Mary of Nazareth, Ever Virgin, Mother of God since she is the mother of Jesus Christ.
The Assumption is the moment in her life, when instead of dying, she is taken body and soul into eternal life. The Orthodox believe the same as the Catholics but call it "the Dormition". In 1950, many works allowed a rapprochement between Eastern and Western Christians, and thus was defined what the Church has always believed from the beginning about the Assumption of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary. In the rush of post-war reconstruction, many parishes took this name for their local church.

In the nearby park shaded by large trees, the ruins of fortifications recall the memory of the six towers of the old castle built in the 11th century…….
In the nearby park shaded by large trees, the ruins of fortifications recall the memory of the six towers of the old castle built in the 11th century by Geoffroy IV, Count of Perche, in order to control this border region near the Chartres region, Normandy, and the possessions of the Lords of Bellême and Alençon which extended as far as Sées.
During the Hundred Years' War, Charles, Count of Evreux and King of Navarre, allied with the English against the King of France, seized the fortress in 1364. It was then besieged and retaken on behalf of King Charles V by his younger brother Philip the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, using catapults that threw large stones to collapse sections of the walls. But after the English victory at Verneuil in 1424, they rushed to destroy Marchainville, setting fire to the town and the castle.
The church, too, has experienced some vicissitudes. It occupies the site of a very old small monastery, given to the abbey of Saint-Evrouit by a certain Fulchierus of Chartres, who was chaplain to Baldwin I, King of Jerusalem and author of an account of the first crusade. The monks built the priory church in the 11th century, of which the thick right wall with its flat buttresses, the cornice in grison stone, and the support points of the descending roof, which housed a small adjoining cloister, still remain. The church was enlarged (end of the 15th or beginning of the 16th century) along its entire length by a side nave resting on stone arches, whose voussures connect without capitals to octagonal pillars.
On the unfortunate initiative of Abbot Fleuriel, this side nave was knocked down in 1723, and the roof of the church lowered. It was not until 1810 that a new priest, Abbot Dubois, had the four arcades of the current chapel of the Virgin reopened. The three other old arcades, still visible, remain blocked in the left wall of the nave.
Unfortunately, on March 15, 1820, the shock of an earthquake caused the old square bell tower of the priory, which was located above the entrance to the choir, to collapse, which caused considerable damage. Thanks to the generosity of the inhabitants and the personal contribution of the Bishop of Séez, the church was repaired and a new bell tower was erected next to the entrance porch in 1824.
On the classical-style altarpiece, a painting, dated 1949, of the Holy Virgin surrounded by angels replaces the painting of the Assumption hanging in the nave. The 18th century tabernacle presents a pretty wooden statuette of the resurrected Christ, with on each side those of a holy bishop with a kneeling donor, and perhaps a Father of the Church.
Two pretty statues of Saint Lawrence and Saint Peter adorn the altarpiece of the chapel of the Virgin, where in the center appears the traditional image of Our Lady of Victories presenting Jesus as a child on a starry sphere that symbolizes the world. Above, appear God the Father, his arms outstretched, and the Holy Spirit.
Finally, let us not forget the curious statue of Saint Louis with his scepter, presenting the crown of thorns and the three nails of the crucifixion, nor the ancient painting, in the nave, of Saint Eloi as bishop, with his anvil of patron saint of blacksmiths.

Saint Martin Church
Highlight • Other
Like several churches in the parish of Sainte-Anne, the church of L'Hôme-Chamondot has Saint Martin, Bishop of Tours in the 4th century, as its patron saint.
The building is of Romanesque origin, first remodeled in the 16th century, with the creation of ramparts on the west facade and the addition of decorative elements at each corner of its roof. It underwent extensive renovations in the 19th century, with the construction of the brick bell tower-porch, which was completed in 1892. The choir was rebuilt around 1838 with the creation of a sacristy behind the chevet, and all the bays we see today were opened between 1838 and 1842.
It contains beautiful interior furnishings:
A high altar dated 1841 made of inlaid wood, flanked by two 17th-century statues (IMH) representing a Virgin and Child and Saint Martin.
A wooden Christ on the cross, attached to the beam of glory, with the La Vove coat of arms at its base.
A beautiful 18th-century wooden lectern with an eagle (CMH).
Thirty choir stalls and their misericords carved in the 18th century (IMH).
18th-century panels adorn the altar of the Virgin on the left side of the nave, some of which are believed to have come from the former Carthusian monastery of Val Dieu.
The six stained-glass windows depicting the four evangelists, a Virgin and Child, and Saint Martin were installed by Louis Barillet, a renowned 20th-century master glassmaker, in 1934.

How curious it is to discover such an original church in such a small town. Its tower transports us to the seaside with its neo-baroque style inspired by a lighthouse.

Saint-Germain Church of Le Mage
Highlight • Religious Site
Between Longny and Moutiers-au-Perche, the town of Mage extends along a central street lined on both sides with old houses. The village is completed by several hamlets and farms scattered throughout the countryside.
Quite eventful, its territory is divided into two very distinct parts: a mountainous and wooded part, and a cultivated part made up of various small fresh and fertile valleys, separated from each other by sandy hillsides whose nature is less suitable for cultivation. .
In the heart of the village, from the small square between the old presbytery and the church, the view extends between large trees towards the valley. You have to go down the slope below the church to admire the old Romanesque porch with arches, resting on columns whose capitals worn by time retain their interlacing decoration in places. It is the remains of a first church from the 12th century. The current building was rebuilt on the foundations, probably in the 15th century.
Inside, the eye is drawn to the altarpiece in a beautiful classic style, enhanced with colors and gilding. On the right side, matching Saint James, the statue of a bishop wearing the crosier and the miter, reminds us that The Magus is honored to have Saint Germain of Paris as his patron.
A side chapel was created in 1646 in which several lords of the neighboring castle of Feillet were buried.
The interior decoration is from the 18th century, notably thanks to the attentions of Claude-Adrien Helvétius, farmer general and lord of Voré and Feillet, but also poet and philosopher of the Age of Enlightenment.
