The walls of the nave of the church of Saint-Orien are adorned with paintings from the 15th century, which are surprisingly well preserved.

They represent a dance of death, symbolizing the confrontation between humans and death.

To have !

Orrouer Church

Highlight • Religious Site

Alone in the middle of the plain, this church is worth the detour before finding the Eure valley, a calm and very rolling road.

Saint Germain Church

Highlight • Other

The Church does not have a transept in its center. Made up of a nave, a bell tower, a heart and a sacristy, the church of Saint Germain le Gaillard was built more “modestly” than its neighbors.

Having a stained glass rose window on the west portal, the warm colors of the sunsets pierce the glass to flood the heart of the Church with light.

Seven large stained glass windows overlook the interior of the church. On one side we find: the Curé d’Ars; Saint Joseph ; the Child and Mary; Saint Pierre. On the other side Bernadette Soubirous; Jesus before the apostles Peter Jacques and John, Louis IX. But a bay remains, empty, filled by a sheet of Plexiglas. This is where the Baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist will take place. It is this last stained glass window that we will talk about next.

On the Chemin du Moulin, you will follow the Eure and will be able to admire the wash house of Saint Georges sur Eure first when the latter does not have its feet in the water. 50m further on, it will be the turn of the lock which regulates the Eure. This charming little corner is ideal for any lover of beautiful green spaces.

It was in the 4th century that an oratory in honor of Saint George, martyred around the year 303, was built. Two centuries later, a chapel replacing the oratory was built by the monks of the abbey of Saint-Père-en-Vallée in Chartres. This abbey was located behind the Saint-Pierre church, on the current site of the Lycée Marceau.

During the thirteenth century, between 1250 and 1270, the chapel gave way to a church. The parish - which will later become the commune - of Saint-Georges is constituted and becomes the capital of a seigneury of the chapter of Chartres. The church froze its architecture, as we know it today, in the sixteenth century around 1500, when it was enlarged by the construction of the South Chapel.
