Origin and history

The parish church of Saint-Sauveur is a religious building built between the 15th and 16th centuries. Located in the commune of Saint-Sauveur, in the Hautes-Alpes department (05), it has been listed as a Historic Monument since December 21, 1984. This classification protects the entire building, identified under the cadastral reference A 1566. The property belongs to the commune, suggesting its importance in the local heritage and its central role in community life.



The location of the church, although specified by an address (5070 Les Facheins, 05200 Saint-Sauveur), is considered of poor quality (note of 5/10 for accuracy). This monument illustrates the religious architecture of the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance in an area marked by a rich history, between Provencal and Alpine influences. The parish churches of this period served not only as a place of worship, but also as a gathering point for the inhabitants, reflecting the social and religious organization of the rural communities.



Available data from sources such as Monumentum and the Merimée database confirm its status as a Historical Monument and its membership in the communal heritage. No additional information is provided regarding its current state, its accessibility to the public, or any ancillary functions such as room rental or guest rooms.
