Origin and history

The church Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Régat is a religious monument located in the village of the same name, in the Occitanie region. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or detailed history. His name suggests a dedication to Saint John the Baptist, the traditional patron saint of many churches in France.

In the rural areas of Occitanie, parish churches like Regat played a central role in community life.

Their architecture often reflected local resources and regional stylistic influences, although these specificities were not documented for this monument.
