Church (Case C 561): Order of 4 October 1967
Origin and history
Saint-Aventin de Mélisey Church is a religious building built between the 4th quarter of the 15th century and the 1st quarter of the 16th century. It is located in the commune of Mélisey, in the department of Yonne, in the region of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté. Its architecture reflects the stylistic features of this period of transition between late Gothic and Renaissance times.
Classified as historical monuments by order of 4 October 1967, this church is now the property of an association. It shows the importance of places of worship in Burgundy villages in the late Middle Ages, where they served as a spiritual and community centre. At that time, the region was marked by a rural and artisanal economy, with churches playing a key role in the social and religious life of the inhabitants.
