Background
Construction on the church started in 1089 on a rocky cliff overlooking the Sarthe river on the site of an old church dedicated to Saint-Martin du Mont-Rocheux.[1] It was completed in 1125.[2] The old church had been destroyed by the Normans in the 10th century. The church is built in the Norman style,[5] and contains the traditional nave and transept, with small chapels. It has a choir with a curved apse. The church was restored in 2006.[1]
