Origin and history

The Church of Saint-Jean-Porte-Latine of Douy-la-Ramee is a religious building located in the municipality of the same name, in Seine-et-Marne (77), in the Île-de-France region. This monument, whose location is estimated as fair (level 5/10), is listed in the Merimée base under the Insee code 77163. Although precise architectural or historical details are not mentioned in the available sources, its listing in the inventory of Historic Monuments by order of 16 March 1926 bears witness to its heritage importance.

The building now belongs to the municipality of Douy-la-Ramée. In the general context of Île-de-France at the beginning of the 20th century, parish churches such as Douy-la-Ramée played a central role in community life. They served not only as a place of worship, but also as a gathering point for local social and cultural events.

The region, marked by a transition between rural traditions and progressive modernization, saw these buildings as symbols of historical continuity and collective identity. Their preservation, through inscriptions such as 1926, reflected a growing awareness of the need to protect the French architectural heritage.
