Origin and history
The church Saint-Sévère de Bourron-Marlotte is a Catholic religious building located in the Seine-et-Marne department in the Île-de-France region. It stands on an elevated space between the Rue du Général-de-Gaulle and the Rue du Pressoir, west of the village. Its strategic location and architecture reflect its historical and spiritual importance to the local community.
Founded in the 12th century, the church underwent a major restructuring between 1850 and 1860. This work changed its orientation and allowed its expansion, adapting the building to the changing needs of the parish. These transformations mark a period of architectural renewal and reaffirmation of its central role in local religious life.
The transept and nave of the Church of St.Severe have been inscribed in historical monuments since 18 March 1926, by ministerial decree. This protection recognizes the heritage value of the building, while confirming its communal property. The inscription bears witness to the importance of preserving this place of worship, a symbol of the architectural and historical heritage of the Seine-et-Marne.
