About

The Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary dates back to the very end of the 16th century, and is one of the religious buildings erected during the second major construction phase in the dawn.

Four centuries after the first period of construction, the end of the Hundred Years' War brought a new lease of life, particularly in terms of architecture.
In the 16th century, two plans were favored: rectangular and cross-shaped, of which the church of Ruvigny is an exemplary example. Its 16th-century stained-glass windows depicting Saint Thibault, Saint Claude, Saint Jauran, Saint Nicolas, Saint Sébastien, the life of the Virgin and the Crucifixion, are classified as historic monuments.
Other pieces of furniture are also listed, such as a triptych depicting the Holy Conversion, painted in oil on wooden panels, dated 1584, which is deposited and preserved at the Ruvigny town hall.
