Origin and history

The church Notre-Dame du Coudray is a monument located in the commune of Le Vieil-Évreux in Normandy. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or details of its architectural or religious history. Its name suggests Marian devotion, typical of many medieval or modern churches in France.

In the Norman region, local churches played a central role in community life, serving as places of worship, gathering and sometimes refuge. In Le Vieil-Evreux, as in other villages, these buildings often reflected the importance of the Christian faith in social and cultural organization, while marking the landscape with their characteristic architecture.
