Timeline

Origin and history

The Saint-Martin church of Beurey-Bauguay, also known as the Sainte-Marguerite chapel, is a religious monument located in the municipality of the same name. The available sources do not specify its construction period or milestones in its history, thus limiting the architectural or historical details available. This type of building, typical of Burgundy countryside, often played a central role in local life.

Churches and chapels served as places of worship, community gatherings and identity markers for villages. In Burgundy-Franche-Comté, as elsewhere in rural areas, these monuments also reflected the social organization and religious practices of the populations throughout the centuries.
