Origin and history

The Church of Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Milleville is a religious monument located in the commune of Fustérouau, in the Occitanie region. Although its name and location are attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or the architectural or historical details associated with it. Its name suggests a dedication to Saint John the Baptist, frequent patron saint of medieval and modern churches in France.

In Gers and more widely in Occitanie, parish churches like Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Milleville played a central role in community life. They served as a place of worship, a gathering for religious and civil holidays, and often as a space for social exchange. In the absence of precise data on this monument, it is difficult to restore its specific history, but its existence bears witness to the importance of religious heritage in this rural area.
