Origin and history

The church of Saint-Blaise de Tréon, located in the village of Eure-et-Loir, is a rare example of a building that preserved its Romanesque structures from the first quarter of the 12th century. Unlike the other churches in the Drouais, she preserved her choir, archvolt bays and yours portal, showing a marked Norman influence. Its iconography and architectural style make it possible to date its construction precisely in this period.

Subsequent modifications followed the initial drills and rhythms, limiting alterations to the original building. The church has significant archaeological potential, especially for its murals, suggested by the old building and the rarity of openings on the north wall. A painted frame and an exterior liter of the 17th century add to its heritage interest.

Ranked Historic Monument by decree of 5 July 2013, the church belongs to the municipality of Tréon. Its inscription protects the entire building (cadastre C 280), highlighting its historical and architectural value. The official address, 1 Rue de l'Église, corresponds to the data of the Merimée database and GPS coordinates available.

The site retains traces of painted decor, although not explicitly described in the sources. The funerary liter, dated from the early 17th century, illustrates a common practice of commemorating the deceased through wall inscriptions. These elements reinforce the importance of the church as a witness to local artistic and religious developments.
