The Saint-Martin de Montmédy church is the church of the Saint-Martin parish in the upper town of Montmédy. The church we see today is not the first to be built on this location. Indeed, a sanctuary surrounded by a cemetery would have been present in the upper part of Montmédy as early as the 11th century. Its origins are rather vague, but historians are certain that from 1156 there was a religious building on the site of the current church2. This monument was quite small and had a single, quite slender tower. According to several old plans of Montmédy, researchers can confirm that it occupied approximately the location between the interior pillars of the current building3. In the 18th century, when Vauban strengthened the fortifications, the rear of the church was shortened to allow the widening of the adjacent rampart. The current church was built on the foundations of a more modest church that probably dates from the 12th century.
