Heritage classified

Origin and history

The church and the surrounding cemetery, located in Millam in the northern department, constitute a set classified as Historic Monument. This site was registered by ministerial decree on 23 February 1951, attesting to its heritage importance for the commune and the Hauts-de-France region. The precise location, noted as "a priori satisfactory" (level 6/10), places the monument at 146 Rue de l'Eglise, in a rural setting typical of Nord-Pas-de-Calais.

The property belongs to the commune of Millam, whose code Insee is 59402. Although the available sources (Monumentum, Merimée base) do not specify detailed architectural or historical elements, the 1951 inscription underlines the cultural value of this place. No information is provided on its openness to the public, its current vocation (cult, tourism, etc.), or the characters related to its history.

In the regional context of the Hauts-de-Frances, churches and their cemeteries traditionally played a central role in community life, serving as places of assembly, collective memory and religious practices. These ensembles often reflected social organization and local activities, such as agriculture or handicrafts, dominant in villages like Millam in the 20th century.
