Historique
L'ancienne église du village disparu de Morteau est implantée à distance du pigeonnier du château de Morteau. Il s'agit d'un édifice datant du 12ème siècle. La nef est plafonnée et le choeur voûté en berceau. A côté de l'entrée, on peut encore voir la pièce d'habitation de l'ermite qui vivait là aux 17ème et 18ème siècles, lorsque l'église avait perdu sa vocation paroissiale.

History
The former church of the disappeared village of Morteau is situated at a distance from the dovecot of the castle of Morteau. This is a building dating from the 12th century. The nave is ceiled and the choir barrel vaulted. Next to the entrance, one can still see the living quarters of the hermit who lived there in the 17th and 18th centuries, when the church had lost its parish vocation.
