Collégiale Saint-Évroult de Mortain, Gothic collegiate church in Mortain-Bocage, France.

The stone church features nine bays in its nave, circular apse, and thick Norman-style columns supporting the Gothic vaulted ceiling.

Robert, Count of Mortain, founded the collegiate church in 1082 with the approval of his half-brother William, Duke of Normandy and King of England.

The church preserves religious artifacts including a 7th-century chrismatory box, 16th-century choir stalls, and an 18th-century sanctuary lamp.

The church maintains regular visiting hours and participates in annual Heritage Days, allowing visitors to explore its medieval architecture.

The church survived a fire during the 1204 conquest of Normandy by Philip Augustus and underwent reconstruction starting in 1216.
