Origin and history
The church of Saint-Barthélemy in Curemonte is a religious building whose origins date back to the thirteenth century, with major changes in the seventeenth century. Located in the village of Curemonte, in Corrèze (Department 19), it embodies the medieval and modern religious architecture of the Limousin region, now integrated into New Aquitaine. Its registration as a Historic Monument by order of 9 February 1927 underscores its heritage value, although the details of its construction or its sponsors remain absent from available sources.
The location of the church, at 3 Rue Colette de Jouvenel, is documented in the Mérimée base, with a geographical accuracy deemed fair (note 5/10). Owned by the municipality of Curemonte (code Insee 19067), it could play a role in local life, whether for visits, ceremonies or community events. However, the sources do not specify its current status (open/closed) or any associated services such as guest rooms.
The photographs available, such as Raimond Spekking's Creative Commons license, show its exterior appearance, but detailed architectural descriptions or specific protected elements (excluding general mention of the church) are not provided. The data come mainly from Monumentum and internal archives, without reference to local archives or in-depth studies.
