Origin and history

The church Sainte-Quitterie de Martillac is a 12th century religious building located in the commune of Martillac, Gironde, New Aquitaine. This monument, whose apse has been protected since 1925, illustrates the Romanesque architecture typical of the region. Its designation as Historic Monuments underscores its local and regional heritage importance.

The location of the church, on the 3 Route de Lartigue à Martillac, is documented with a precision deemed "very satisfactory" (note 8/10). Owned by the commune, it is mentioned in the Mérimée database under the code Insee 33274, attached to the arrondissement of Bordeaux. Although the practical information (visits, services) is not detailed, its status as a Historical Monument makes it a point of interest for the study of the medieval Aquitaine heritage.

Protection of the apse by order of 21 December 1925 is the only legal element explicitly mentioned in the available sources. No other key date, historical character or specific event related to its construction or use is mentioned in the data consulted. The church is thus part of the rural religious landscape of the Gironde, marked by Romanesque buildings with community and spiritual functions.
