Origin and history

The Church of the Assumption of Borne is a religious monument located in the commune of Glandage, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or the circumstances of its foundation. His name, linked to the Assumption, suggests a Marian vocation, frequent in the rural churches of this region.

In mountainous areas such as Glandage, churches played a central role in community life, serving as places of worship, assembly and social organization. These buildings often reflected the local history and religious practices of the populations, while being architectural landmarks in sometimes isolated landscapes.
