Origin and history

The church of Saint-Thomas de Châteauneuf-sur-Isère is a religious monument located in the municipality of the same name. Located in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, this church bears the name of an Apostle of Christ, Saint Thomas, although the available sources do not specify the circumstances of its foundation or its architectural evolution. Parish churches like St. Thomas played a central role in the life of local communities in the Middle Ages and modern times.

They served as places of worship, gathering for collective decisions, and often marked the heart of villages. In Drôme, a region to which Châteauneuf-sur-Isère belongs, these buildings also reflected the varied stylistic influences, between Romanesque and Gothic, depending on the periods.
