Origin and history

The church Saint-Jacques des Ferres is a monument located in the commune of Ferres, in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. The available data do not specify its period of construction or its detailed history, but its name suggests a link with the cult of St James, often associated with pilgrimages or medieval churches. Village churches like Santiago des Ferres played a central role in community life over the centuries.

They served as places of worship, gathering for religious festivals and local decisions, and often reflected regional architecture and traditions. In Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, these buildings were also landmarks in sometimes isolated landscapes, marking the identity of rural communities.
