Origin and history

Saint-Philibert-et-Saint-Bernard Church in Saint-Philibert is a religious building built in the 13th century. Located in the Côte-d'Or department, in Burgundy-Franche-Comté, it is representative of the medieval sacred architecture of this region. Its registration as a Historical Monument by decree of 10 November 1925 bears witness to its heritage value recognized by the French authorities.

The location of the church, in the heart of the village of Saint-Philibert, suggests its central role in community life in the Middle Ages. At that time, parish churches served not only as a place of worship, but also as a gathering point for the inhabitants, marking the social, religious and even economic rhythms of local life. Their construction often reflected the prosperity or spiritual ambitions of rural communities, although the specific details of this church are not specified in the available sources.

The building is now owned by the municipality of Saint-Philibert, indicating its long-term attachment to the local heritage. Although information on its current state or contemporary uses (visits, events) is not detailed, its listing as a Historical Monument guarantees legal protection and recognition of its cultural importance. The accuracy of its location, noted as "very satisfactory" (level 8/10), makes it possible to clearly identify its location at the address 1 Church Square.

Available sources, including the Merimée and Monumentum base, confirm its protected status and its membership in the Burgundian architectural heritage. However, details of its specific history, its possible modifications over the centuries or the characters associated with its construction or preservation are not mentioned in the data consulted. This limits the in-depth knowledge of its evolution, but underlines its importance as a 13th century material witness in this region.
