Origin and history
The Saint-Pierre de Cuisery Church, also known as the Saint-Pierre Chapel, is a religious building built in 950 in the municipality of Cuisery, Saône-et-Loire. This monument, whose construction periods extend mainly to the 11th and 12th centuries, bears witness to the medieval Christian architecture of the Burgundy-Franche-Comté region. Its inscription in the title of historical monuments, effective since 6 February 1941, underscores its heritage and cultural importance.
The chapel Saint-Pierre, located precisely at 62 Place Saint-Pierre, is a vestige of Cuisery's religious history. Although the available sources do not detail its exact use throughout the centuries, its status as a historical monument and its preservation until today make it a key element of local heritage. It is representative of the small rural churches that have marked the Burgundy and Frankish landscape since the Middle Ages.
Practical information about his visit or access is not specified in available sources. However, its inscription in the historical heritage guarantees protection and recognition of its architectural and spiritual value. Data from databases such as Mérimée or Monumentum confirm its membership in the communal territory of Cuisery, identified by Insee 71158.
