Origin and history

The Saint-Sulpice church of Barbery-Saint-Sulpice, located in the Aube department in the Grand Est region, is a religious building dating back to the 12th and 16th centuries. It is distinguished by a wooden nave and cradle dating from the 12th century, as well as a five-paned stone apse, vaulted. The church, from plan to Latin cross, was inscribed in historical monuments in 1925.

The church's furniture includes remarkable elements from the 16th century, such as an oak organ stand decorated with medallions, monumental paintings, and tiles depicting the Champagne coat of arms. Other treasures include glass windows depicting biblical scenes such as the Baptism of Christ or the Visitation, as well as a statue of the Virgin with the Child from the Champagne school, in limestone with traces of polychromy.

The parish of the church, known from 1169, depended on the Grand Dean of Troyes and the chapter of Saint Peter. His story is related to the bishop's snack, reflecting his religious importance in the region. Today, the building belongs to the commune and remains an architectural and artistic testimony of the medieval and Renaissance periods in Champagne.
