Origin and history

The Saint-Jean-Baptiste church of Curcy-sur-Orne is a monument located in the commune of Thury-Harcourt-le-Hom, Normandy. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or the architectural or historical details that could further characterize it. In the Norman region, parish churches such as Curcy-sur-Orne played a central role in the lives of local communities.

They served not only as a place of worship, but also as a gathering point for the inhabitants, thus reflecting the importance of religion in the social and cultural organization of the time.
