The Ministère de la Culture's notice

L'église a été commencée en 1911, à l'initiative de l'abbé Hector Langlois (1852-1929), qui mit l'édifice sous le vocable de Jeanne d'Arc afin de rappeler sa capture par les Anglo-Bourguignons en 1430, que l'histoire situe à proximité. Confié à l'architecte Henri Bernard (1849-1929), le chantier est interrompu par la guerre. Poursuivi très lentement, faute de crédits, entre les deux guerres, l'église est finalement achevée par l'architecte Henri Colboc (1917-1983), qui construit le choeur et les bas-côtés entre 1958 et 1960.

The church was begun in 1911, at the initiative of the abbé Hector Langlois (1852-1929), who placed the building under the patronage of Jeanne d'Arc in order to recall her capture by the English-Burgundians in 1430, which history locates nearby. Entrusted to the architect Henri Bernard (1849-1929), work was interrupted by the war. Pursued very slowly, due to lack of funds, between the two wars, the church was finally completed by the architect Henri Colboc (1917-1983), who built the choir and aisles between 1958 and 1960.
