Origin and history
The Sainte-Libaire Church is a Catholic church located in Rambervillers, Vosges department, in the Grand Est region. Built in the 16th century in Gothic style, it underwent modifications in the 18th century. Its western gate overlooks the Place du 30-Septembre-1944, where are also the 16th century city hall and the monument to the dead. The building has been classified as historic monuments since December 31, 1986.
The church houses an organ of John Nicholas III Johnpierre, dated 1850, whose instrumental part was classified by decree of 9 July 1981. This monument, owned by the commune, is a significant example of the religious architecture of the region. Its location on the right bank of the Mortagne River and its integration into the urban fabric of Rambervillers make it a central part of the local heritage.
Available sources, including Wikipedia and Monumentum, confirm its historical and architectural importance. The church is also referenced in the Mérimée base and on OpenStreetMap, reflecting its institutional recognition. Its exact address is 11 rue de l'Église, in the Vosges department, in historical Lorraine (now Grand Est).
