Origin and history

Saint-Pierre d'Escolives-Sainte-Camille Church is a Romanesque religious building built in the 11th century. Located in the department of Yonne, it illustrates the medieval sacred architecture of Burgundy-Franche-Comté. Its basilical plan, with a single nave and a semicircular apse, is characteristic of the rural churches of this period.

Ranked a historical monument by decree of 24 July 1920, the church bears witness to the importance of religious heritage in this region. Its location on the edge of RD 563, in the northern part of the village, reflects its integration into the local fabric. The building, owned by the commune, remains a symbol of the architectural and spiritual history of Burgundy.

Available sources, including Wikipedia and Monumentum, confirm its protected status and heritage value. The absence of details about specific characters or events related to its construction limits information to its general architectural and historical context. Its ranking in 1920 highlights its preservation as a major cultural asset.
