Flora in churches

Flora is displayed in churches, on their furnishings and in their architecture. These plants are charged with symbols that vary from period to period.

This exhibition is an opportunity to (re)discover the world of plants from a fresh, contemporary perspective.

The result of a photo competition organised by the association Églises Ouvertes France, the photos selected by the jury will be exhibited in Haute-Marne and Vosges in 2025, in 11 churches in the network:

- Joinville, Notre-Dame church: from 3 March to 27 April,

- Greux, Saint-Maurice church: from 29 April to 28 May,

- Bourmont-entre-Meuze and Mouzon, Saint-Joseph church: from 31 May to 22 June,

- Chaumont, Saint-Jean-Baptiste basilica: from 25 June to 15 July,

- Blécourt, église Notre-Dame: from 19 July to 24 August,

- Châteauvillain, Notre-Dame church: from 1 to 21 September,

- Rives-Dervoises, église Saint-Martin de Louze / église Notre-Dame de Longeville-sur-la-Laines / église Notre-Dame de Puellemontier / église Notre-Dame de Droyes: from 27 September to 30 November (detailed programme to follow...),

- Montier-en-Der, église Saint-Rémi: from 6 December to 4 January.

Photos will be on display in each of the churches, and visitors will be able to take part in individual or group activities.
