Origin and history

The church of Cussey-les-Forges is a religious building built between the 12th and 13th centuries. Located in the Côte-d'Or department, in Burgundy-Franche-Comté, it is representative of the medieval sacred architecture of this region. Its classification as Historic Monument by decree of 15 March 1909 bears witness to its heritage value and its importance to the local heritage.

At the time of its construction, churches played a central role in the life of rural Burgundy communities. They served not only as a place of worship, but also as a gathering point for the inhabitants, reflecting the social and religious organization of the medieval era. Agricultural and craft activities dominated daily life, while the Church structured collective life around religious festivals and community events.

Today, the church of Cussey-les-Forges is owned by the municipality. Although the practical information about its current access or uses (visits, rentals, etc.) is not specified in the available sources, its status as a Historic Monument guarantees its preservation. The location of the building at 8 Rue de l'Eglise is documented with a precision considered very satisfactory (note of 8/10).
