Origin and history
The church Saint-Pierre de Pouilly-sur-Loire is a religious building built in the 3rd quarter of the 16th century, located in the commune of Pouilly-sur-Loire, in Burgundy-Franche-Comté. This monument, classified among the Historical Monuments, is distinguished by its bell tower, the only element protected by a decree of inscription in 1971. The precise location, noted as "a priori satisfactory" (level 7/10), places the building at address 2 Place des Frères Mollet, in the department of Nièvre (code Insee 58215).
The church property belongs to the commune of Pouilly-sur-Loire. Although the available sources (Monumentum, Merimée base) do not specify its current status of opening up to the public, they confirm its anchoring in the local heritage. The bell tower, an iconic architectural element, is the only component explicitly mentioned as protected, reflecting its historical and symbolic importance to the community.
Historical data available remain limited to administrative and architectural information. No mention shall be made of sponsors, architects, or significant events related to its construction or past use. The church is nevertheless part of the religious and cultural landscape of Burgundy-Franche-Comté, a region marked by a rich medieval and reborn heritage.
