Origin and history

The church of Saint-Lubin de Catelon is a religious monument located in the commune of Flancourt-Crescy-en-Roumois. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its date of foundation or the milestones in its history. His name evokes Saint Lubin, bishop of Chartres in the 6th century, but no direct connection with this character is mentioned in the current data.

Parish churches like Saint-Lubin played a central role in the life of rural communities in Normandy. They served as places of worship, assembly and social cohesion. At a time when agriculture dominated the local economy, these buildings were often the heart of villages, also hosting community activities and seasonal celebrations.
