Origin and history

The church Notre-Dame de Sacquenville, located in the Eure department in Normandy, dates from the 15th and 16th centuries, after the Hundred Years War. It belongs to the parish of Saint-Jean-Baptiste du Val-Iton and the diocese of Évreux. Its flamboyant Gothic architecture, typical of the late 15th century, includes a nave adorned with the Mailloc shield, local lords, and an arrowed square tower. The weapons of Jean Testard, another noble of Sacquenville, appear on the cross of warheads.

The liturgical furniture comes from the nearby churches of Mesnil-Fuguet, Bacquepuis and Saint-Martin-la-Campagne, acquired during their sale in 1811. The building was restored in the early 2020s thanks to the Heritage Foundation, the municipality and the association of friends of the church. The project, completed in October 2022, was inaugurated by Mayor Richard Finix and the Bishop of Évreux, Christian Nourrichard.

Ranked a historic monument in 1944, the church is owned by the commune. Its exact address is 55 Rue du Floquet, 27930 Sacquenville. It illustrates Norman religious heritage, marked by local noble influences and contemporary restorations.
