Origin and history

The Church of Notre-Dame-de-l'Immaculée-Conception, also known as Notre-Dame-des-Cités du Plan, is a religious monument located in the commune of Roussillon. Although its name and location are clearly identified, the available sources do not specify its construction period or detailed history. In the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, churches have often played a central role in the lives of local communities, serving as places of worship, assembly and architectural landmarks.

In Roussillon, as in many cities in the region, these buildings generally reflect the importance of religion in the social and cultural organization of people throughout the centuries.
