Origin and history

The church of the Heart-Immaculate-de-Marie de Roquebillière is a religious monument located in the commune of Roquebillière, in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. The available data do not specify its period of construction or the circumstances of its construction, but its name suggests a Marian devotion, typical of many churches built or renovated from the 19th century in France. Churches dedicated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary often reflect the importance of Marian cults in local communities, especially in rural or mountain areas such as the Alpes-Maritimes.

These buildings served as a gathering place for the faithful, marking the social and spiritual life of the inhabitants. In the absence of precise information on this monument, its role can be brought closer to that of other village churches, centres of religious and community life.
