Origin and history

The church Saint-Pierre de Menneval, located in the department of Eure in Normandy, is a 13th century religious building. This monument, typical of Norman medieval architecture, is distinguished by its choir, which was the subject of official protection in 1927 by inscription to the Historical Monuments. Its location, at the heart of Menneval, reflects its central role in local life since the Middle Ages, both spiritually and communally.

The location of the church, specified as "a priori satisfactory" according to available data, places the building at the approximate address of the Church Coast. Although architectural details or specific historical events related to its construction are not explicitly mentioned in the sources, its status as communal property and its partial inscription underline its heritage importance. Parish churches like Saint Peter played a key role in the social and religious organization of Norman villages in the 13th century, serving as places of worship, assembly and sometimes refuge.

Available sources, including the Merimée and Monumentum base, indicate that the church is still associated with the municipality of Menneval, whose Insee code (27398) confirms its administrative anchor in the department of Eure. No information is provided on its current accessibility, such as the possibility of visits, rentals or accommodation. The Creative Commons license awarded to the associated photo suggests, however, a contemporary interest in its preservation and enhancement.
