This church, dedicated to Saint Peter, is better kown under the name "L'église aux trois sanctuaires". It was erected on the "Butte d'Isle-Aumont" a hill that in acient time may have been a fortified island in the swampy valley. A settlement already existed here in pre-Roman times. Within the 6th century a merovingian necropolis covered the hill. More than a thousand graves have been found and about 600 merovingian sarcophagi have been excavated some decades ago.
In 1097 Robert of Molesme founded the priory of Saint-Ursion, a castle was built next to it. Both structures are gone.
The church was locked, but Mrs. Jacotin opened the gates and doors and guided us around. Merci beaucoup!
A "Coquille Saint-Jacques" is on the base of a pillar.
