The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Edifiée entre 1625 et 1651 sur les plans des architectes de la Compagnie de Jésus, l'église de Toussaints dévoile le goût de la Contre-Réforme pour l'addition de colonnes, de pilastres et de frontons sur la façade. Elle a conservé à l'intérieur trois retables lavallois.

Erected between 1625 and 1651 on the plans of the architects of the Company of Jesus, the church of Toussaints reveals the taste of the Counter-Reformation for the addition of columns, pilasters and pediments on the façade. It has retained inside three altarpieces from Laval.
