About Église

Église is the only classé historic monument in Longuesse, the higher of France’s two levels of protection. It is built in the Gothic style. It dates from the 13th–16th c. It has been classé since 1910.

L'église Saint-Gildard est une église catholique paroissiale située à Longuesse, en France. Ce fut, sous l'Ancien Régime, l'une des nombreuses possessions de l'abbaye de Saint-Germain-des-Prés. Sa construction remonte à la fin du XIIe siècle, en ce qui concerne le chœur et la croisée du transept, qui sont de style gothique et de dimensions considérables pour un petit village.

Classé is the highest protection: no work may be done on the building without the State’s permission, and the State’s architects watch over it.
