Origin and history

Sainte-Marie-Madeleine de Woignarue is a religious monument located in the commune of Woignarue in the Hauts-de-France region. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or detailed history. This type of building, typical of French villages, generally served as a place of worship, community gathering and architectural landmark for local residents.
