Origin and history

Saint-Barthélémy Church, located in Montigny-Saint-Barthélemy (Côte-d'Or), is a religious building built in the 14th century. It is classified as a Historical Monument, with official protection by decree of 17 April 1992, covering the entire church (cadastre AA 38). This building today belongs to the commune and remains an architectural testimony of this medieval period in Burgundy-Franche-Comté.

The location of the church at 8 Rue de l'Église in Montigny-Saint-Barthélemy is documented in the Mérimée base, although geographical accuracy is considered poor (note of 5/10). The monument, a communal property, could potentially be opened to the visit, although the available sources (Monumentum) do not specify its current status of access or use (rent, guest rooms, etc.).

In the 14th century, parish churches like Saint-Barthélémy played a central role in the life of Burgundy villages. They served not only as a place of worship, but also as a gathering point for the community, reflecting the social and religious organization of the time. Local activities, mainly agricultural, often revolved around these buildings, which also marked the landscape by their characteristic architecture.
