Origin and history

Saint-Loup Church is a Catholic church located in the hamlet of Thuisy, in the commune of Estissac, in the Aube department in the Grand Est region. It was originally the parish church of Thuisy, dependent on the dean of Villemaur. Its architecture reflects several epochs: the nave dates from the 18th century, while the apse, the transept and the classified stained glass windows date back to the 16th century. Two dates mark this building in particular: 1509, engraved on a key to the vault, and 1553, inscribed on the double arch, reflecting the work carried out during the Renaissance.

The Saint-Loup Church was classified as historic monuments by order of 24 January 1986, thereby recognizing its heritage value. Today it belongs to the municipality of Estissac. The stained glass windows, a remarkable part of the building, are protected as historical monuments, as is the structure itself. Although located in a small hamlet, this church illustrates the architectural and religious evolution of the region, between the late Middle Ages and modern times.

The available sources, including Wikipedia and Monumentum, confirm its status as a historical monument and specify its exact address: 21 Rue Caroujat Borgniat, in Estissac. The Insee code of the municipality (10142) and its attachment to the former Champagne-Ardenne region, which is now integrated with the Grand Est, complement the administrative information related to this heritage. No mention is made of its current accessibility or possible partial reallocation (rent, visit).
