Origin and history

The church Sainte-Austreberte de Cantiers is a religious monument located in the commune of Vexin-sur-Epte, Normandy. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its time of construction or the architectural or historical details that could further characterize it. In Norman Vexin, parish churches like Cantiers traditionally played a central role in the lives of local communities.

They served not only as a place of worship, but also as a gathering point for the inhabitants, thus reflecting the social and religious organization of the region throughout the centuries.
