Origin and history

The church of Saint-Pie X de Cité d'Aiy is a religious monument located in the commune of Irigny, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. The available data do not specify its period of construction or its architectural style, but its name suggests a link with Pope Pius X (1903-1914), although this association is not explicitly confirmed in the sources. Parish churches like Saint-Pie X traditionally played a central role in the lives of local communities, particularly in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.

They served as places of worship, social gathering and sometimes as historical landmarks for the inhabitants. In the absence of specific details on this monument, its importance remains linked to its religious and community use in the urban or peri-urban context of Irigny.
