France - Cambremer, Église Saint-Denis
The Église Saint-Denis (Church of Saint Denis) dates back to the late 12th century. It was consecrated in 1188 by Henri II, Bishop of Bayeux. Only the square Romanesque tower made of limestone remains from this period. The pyramidal roof is topped by an octagonal spire. The bell tower has been listed as a historic monument since 23 April 1921.
The church was largely rebuilt in the 17th century. In the 19th century, the church was renovated and enlarged: the nave was extended, a northern chapel was demolished and the cemetery was relocated. The church was given a new high altar and a sacristy and a new presbytery were built.
The interior of the church offers sixteen stained glass windows from the 20th century, evoking the history of the early Christians or historical figures such as Joan of Arc or Charlemagne.
