Church of Saint-Ouen-le-Vieux, Roman Catholic church in Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine, France.

The Church of Saint-Ouen-le-Vieux stands on a ten-meter promontory along Rue du Planty, featuring architectural elements from both Romanesque and Gothic periods.

Constructed near the former villa Clippiacum in the 12th century, the church incorporated carved acanthus leaf capitals between 1140 and 1160.

The church maintains its function as a religious center while preserving historical elements, including stone bas-reliefs from the nineteenth century depicting biblical scenes.

Sunday mass services take place at 11:00 AM, and visitors can observe the eighteenth-century organ positioned at the back left side of the building.

The site became a pilgrimage destination after housing Saint Ouen's relics, leading to the development of the surrounding village that adopted his name.
