Origin and history

The parish church of Saints-Innocents de La Crique is a religious monument located in the municipality of La Crique, Normandy. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or the milestones in its history. Its name, dedicated to the Innocent Saints, evokes an ancient Christian tradition, but no specific architectural or historical details are mentioned in the current data.

They served as places of worship, assembly and social cohesion, while often reflecting the architectural and religious developments of their time. In Normandy, these buildings were frequently linked to local history, marking the landscape and collective memory, even when their exact origins are lost in time.
