Origin and history
Saint-Pierre de Dampierre-en-Bray Church, located in the Seine-Maritime department in Normandy, is a Catholic building built in the 12th century. It was thoroughly reshaped in the 17th century, giving it an architectural blend characteristic of these two epochs. The church is known to be one of the largest and oldest in its canton, testifying to its local historical and religious importance.
The church is distinguished by several remarkable elements, including an arrow covered with slates and an ogival portal dating back to the 16th century. Inside, there is a pulpit of the same period and funerary slabs, two of which date from the 17th century. These elements illustrate the stylistic evolutions and funeral uses of the time. The building was listed as historic monuments by order of November 24, 1926, recognizing its heritage value.
The precise location of the church is indicated as being in Dampierre-en-Bray, with an approximate address at 5002 Place de la Mairie. The monument is the property of the municipality and its listing in the inventory of historical monuments makes it a protected property. Although information on its current accessibility is limited, its status as a historic monument guarantees its preservation for future generations.
