Origin and history

The church of Saint-Étienne de Garancières-en-Beauce is a religious building dating back to the 13th century, with major changes in the 16th century. It is distinguished by its bell tower, classified as Historic Monument by order of 13 April 1907, bearing witness to its architectural and heritage importance. The location of the building, in the village of Garancières-en-Beauce (Eure-et-Loir), is documented with an accuracy considered satisfactory, according to the criteria of the Merimée base.

The official protection of its bell tower in 1907 underlines the historical value of this element, the only part of the church to benefit from a classification measure. The building now belongs to the municipality, although information on its accessibility (visits, current uses) is not specified in the available sources. Its exact address, 2 Bis Rue de la Râperie, confirms its anchoring in the local urban fabric, in a department marked by a rich medieval and reborn religious heritage.

Available data, mainly from the Monumentum platform and the Merimée archives, focus on administrative and architectural aspects. No mention is made of sponsors, artisans or specific historical events related to the church, outside its construction period and the protection of its bell tower.
