Origin and history

The church of Saint-Hubert de Nohan is a religious monument located in the commune of Thilay, in the Grand Est region. This place of worship, dedicated to Saint Hubert, patron of hunters, is part of the local architectural landscape, although its period of construction is not specified in the available sources. Churches dedicated to Saint Hubert, frequent in forested or rural areas, often bear witness to a local tradition linked to hunting or forest life.

In Thilay, as in many communes in the Greater East region, these buildings served as a gathering point for the faithful and played a central role in community life, especially during religious festivals or important events on the liturgical calendar.
