Origin and history
The church of Notre-Dame de Vaux is a religious building located in the hamlet of Vaux, on the town of Valencia-en-Poitou, in the department of Vienna (New Aquitaine region). This monument, whose construction period is not specified in the available sources, has a heritage interest recognized by the legal protections it enjoys. His portal was registered as the Historic Monuments by order of 7 June 1928, while his west façade was classified by order of 25 April 1939. These protections reflect the architectural or historical value of these elements.
The location of the church, shown as approximate with an accuracy considered passable (note of 5/10), places the building at the following address: 2 Rue de l'Église, 86700 Vaux. The monument belongs to the commune and its current status (open or closed to the visit) is not mentioned in the sources. The address referenced in the Mérimée base confirms its administrative connection to the town of Valence-en-Poitou, in the former region Poitou-Charentes, now integrated into New Aquitaine.
