Origin and history

Saint-Pierre du Bourget Church is a religious building located in the commune of Villarodin-Bourget, Savoie (department 73). Built between the 17th and 18th centuries, it embodies the religious architecture of this period in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. Its classification as Historic Monument by decree of 30 May 1984 bears witness to its heritage value, particularly for its protected elements, such as the church itself, referenced under cadastre C 2035.

The location of the church at 39 Rue de l'Eglise is estimated with an accuracy deemed "a priori satisfactory" (level 6/10). Owned by the commune, it is part of a historical context where parish churches played a central role in the social and spiritual life of Savoyard villages. These buildings served not only as places of worship, but also as community landmarks, marking the landscape and daily life of the inhabitants.

Available sources, such as the Merimée and Monumentum base, confirm its protected heritage status. Although little detail is provided on its specific history, its ranking and preservation reflect the importance attached to the preservation of religious buildings of that time in Savoy. The absence of any mention of its current use (visits, rentals, etc.) suggests a mainly cultural and heritage vocation.
