The church of the Nativity-de-la-Vierge of Montmirey-le-Château is a religious monument located in the municipality of the same name. This place of worship, whose exact period of construction is not specified in the available sources, is part of the architectural and spiritual landscape of the Burgundy-Franche-Comté region. Its name evokes a dedication to the Nativity of the Virgin Mary, a common theme in medieval and modern churches.
