Religious heritage restoration in Eure, France

Overview

In the Eure department of France, restoration projects are ongoing for religious heritage sites. At the Saint-Gervais Saint-Protais church in Étrépagny, a renovation project estimated at 2.7 million euros is expected to last until the end of 2027. Following previous work on the bell tower and roof, current efforts focus on restoring north and south stained-glass windows at a specialized workshop.

In the commune of Vexin-sur-Epte, local authorities are managing the maintenance of 14 different religious buildings across 14 villages. Mayor Michel Jouyet highlighted the difficulty of allocating public funds among various historical sites, including classified heritage locations like Notre-Dame de Tourny. To justify public spending, the municipality is looking into developing new cultural uses for these buildings to complement their religious functions and preserve the region’s architectural heritage.
