The Church of Sainte-Thérèse-de-l'Enfant-Jésus du Rouget is a religious monument located in the commune of Le Rouget-Pers. The available data do not specify the period of its construction or the circumstances of its construction. His name pays tribute to Thérèse de Lisieux, nicknamed Sainte-Thérèse-de-l'Enfant-Jésus, a major figure in 19th-century Catholicism, although this link is not detailed in current sources.

The churches dedicated to Sainte-Thérèse-de-l'Enfant-Jésus multiplied in France from the beginning of the twentieth century, often in connection with its canonization in 1925. In rural areas such as Le Rouget-Pers, these buildings play a central role in community life, serving as places of worship, gathering and spiritual support. Their architecture generally reflects local traditions and resources available at the time of their construction, although the specifics of this monument are not documented.
