Origin and history

Saint-Rémy de Saint-Rémy Church, located in the Côte-d'Or department in Burgundy-Franche-Comté, is a religious monument whose exact origins are not documented in the available sources. Its very name, linked to Saint Remi, bishop of Reims in the fifth century, suggests an ancient foundation, but no specific date can be advanced. Parish churches like Saint-Rémy played a central role in the life of Burgundy rural communities.

They served as a place of worship, assembly and identity marker for the inhabitants. In Burgundy-Franche-Comté, these buildings often reflected the architectural and social evolution of the villages, although their individual stories are sometimes not well known.
