Saint Lubin Chapel

Highlight • Historical Site

At its height of popularity, the town of Yèvre-le-Châtel obtained permission to build a second church outside its fortifications. However, this church was never completed, as the village declined following the Hundred Years' War. The ruins moved Victor Hugo, who described them in a romantic style, and the resulting renewed renown led to their classification as historical monuments.

The fortress of Yévre le Chatel [Located on a spur, at the limit of the territory of the Carnutes and the Senons, the oppidum protected a communication route, then two Roman entities after 52 BC. The site overlooked the Roman road from Sens to Le Mans. After the Christianization of Gallo-Roman Gaul, the Rimarde river was the border between the bishoprics of Sens, parish of Saint-Martin de Souville; and Saint-Lazare Leprosarium and the bishopric of Orléans, parish of Saint-Gault and Saint-Lubin. This division remained until the 19th century. Around 1200, on the orders of Philip Augustus, the castle was rebuilt according to the latest improvements in military architecture brought back from the Crusades, in particular relief arches increasing resistance to undermining work. a long history that you can discover on the websites.
