The church Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Maisoncelle is a religious monument located in the village of Maisoncelle, in the Hauts-de-France region. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or detailed history.

Parish churches like Maisoncelle historically played a central role in the lives of rural communities. They served not only as a place of worship, but also as a gathering point for social and civic events. In Picardie, a region now integrated into the Hauts-de-France, these buildings often reflected the local organisation around the parish, marking the landscape and the daily life of the inhabitants.
