Origin and history

The church Saint-Vaast de Boiry-Notre-Dame is a monument located in the commune of Boiry-Notre-Dame, in the Hauts-de-France region. The available data do not specify its period of construction or its detailed history, but its name suggests a link with Saint Vaast, an emblematic religious figure in northern France.
