Church (with the exception of bedside sacristy) (Box AB 103): inscription by decree of 29 August 1984
Origin and history
The church of Saint-Aubin-la-Plaine, with the exception of its sacristy backed by bedside, is a religious building dating back to the 15th century. Located in the Vendée department, in the Pays de la Loire region, it was listed as a Historical Monument by order of 29 August 1984. This classification specifically concerns the church itself, excluding sacristy, and covers the land cadastralized under the reference AB 103. The location of this monument, although documented, is considered to have a mediocre accuracy (level 5 of 10), with an approximate address at 9 Rue de l'Église.
The monument is the property of the commune of Saint-Aubin-la-Plaine, identified by code Insee 85199. Although the practical information about its visit or current use (open to the public, rental, accommodation) is not specified in the available sources, its status as a Historic Monument is indicative of its heritage importance. The data come mainly from the Merimée database and Monumentum, without mentioning specific historical events or characters related to its construction or history.
In the 15th century, when this church was built, the Pays de la Loire region was marked by a rural and agricultural society, where religious buildings played a central role in community life. Churches served not only as places of worship, but also as gathering points for the inhabitants, reflecting the importance of faith and sacred architecture in the social organization of the time. This general context allows to situate the monument in its historical setting, although the particulars of this church remain limited to the administrative and heritage information available.
