Saint Brice

At the heart of the village stands the church of Saint-Brice de Bernieulles, recognisable by its heterogeneous architectural style. Its original layout is simple: a central nave extended by a choir and flanked by a bell tower. Walking along its walls, you can still see the flint and sandstone foundations, evidence of the building's age. The oldest part is thought to be the bell tower, which dates back to the 15th century.

In the 16th century, a seigneurial chapel was built to the north of the choir. Visible from the road, it is accessed via a surprising corridor, a unique architectural feature that arouses the curiosity of visitors. At the rear of the choir, the brick sacristy, dating from 1810, completes the ensemble.

The interior of the building, warm and serene, invites visitors to pause and contemplate this unique heritage site. It is worth taking the time to observe every detail, as the church is also full of treasures: banners, stained glass windows, processional staffs and commemorative plaques tell the story and preserve the memory of the village.

As you leave the cemetery next to the church, don't forget to admire the funeral chapel of the Reisenthel family, an important family in the village in the 19th century.
