Église Saint-Sauveur

The Église Saint-Sauveur is a Gothic church in Les Andelys designed with a Greek cross floor plan. It features crossing arms extending about 29 meters and is topped by a wooden spire approximately 47 meters tall, covered with slate tiles.

Construction of this church began in 1220 during a period of change in Normandy. The building came into existence at a time when the region was being reshaped by new political powers.

The church contains stained glass windows from different periods, including 14th-century pieces in the high choir and works by Max Ingrand made in 1953. These windows reflect how artistic styles changed over time within this sacred space.

The church is open to visitors during daylight hours with free entry. Parking is available nearby, making it straightforward to visit.

Inside the church is a pipe organ built in 1674 by Robert Ingout that originally had around 2000 pipes. This organ is a rare example of a preserved instrument from the 1600s with many original parts still in place.
