Église Saint-Pierre de Roye

Église Saint-Pierre de Roye is a church featuring neo-gothic architecture with pointed arches and ornate stained glass windows throughout its interior. The main nave is flanked by side aisles that flood the space with natural light.

The church was rebuilt between 1931 and 1933 by architect Charles Duval after being destroyed during World War I. This reconstruction was part of broader efforts to restore the Somme region after the war.

The church serves as a gathering place for the community, where worship services and musical performances continue to draw local residents. It remains central to Roye's social rhythm.

The church is located in central Roye and is easily accessible to visitors on foot. The interior can be explored at your own pace, with time to observe the architectural details and windows.

The church is widely recognized as a masterwork of Charles Duval's post-war architectural designs in the Somme region. Few visitors realize how much his approach to reconstruction shaped the visual character of the area.
