Origin and history

The Church of the Trinity of Tocqueville-sur-Eu is a religious monument located in the commune of Petit-Caux, Normandy. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or detailed history. This type of building, typical of the Normandy countryside, traditionally served as a place of worship and assembly for local inhabitants.

In rural areas such as Normandy, parish churches played a central role in community life. They were often the heart of religious, social and sometimes administrative activities. Their architecture generally reflected local resources and know-how, while meeting the spiritual needs of surrounding populations.
