Parish Church (C 1343): Order of 6 April 1987
Origin and history
The church Our Lady of Yenne is a religious building whose origins date back to the twelfth century, with major changes in the seventeenth century. Located in the municipality of Yenne, Savoie (Department 73), it embodies an architectural and spiritual heritage marked by these two distinct periods. Classified as a Historic Monument by decree of 6 April 1987, it now belongs to the commune and retains a central place in the local landscape.
The location of the church, 60 Place des Vieux Moulins, is estimated with a priori satisfactory accuracy (level 6/10). Although the available sources (Monumentum, Merimée base) do not detail its social history or specific transformations, its protected status underscores its heritage importance. The building, probably linked to parish and community life, reflects the architectural and religious evolutions of Savoy between the Middle Ages and the modern era.
No information is provided on sponsors, craftsmen or specific events related to its construction or restoration. The data are limited to its classification, communal property and address, without details of its current use (visits, cults, etc.).
