Église Saint-Projet et Saint-Amarin de Saint-Amarin, Medieval church in Saint-Amarin, France.

The Église Saint-Projet et Saint-Amarin is a stone church in Saint-Amarin with a neo-rococo main altar and an organ by Dubois Louis. The interior is lit by several stained glass windows depicting saints.

The church is first recorded in 1135 and underwent major structural changes after the Thirty Years' War. These alterations reflect the rebuilding and renewal of the religious site during that period.

The church displays works by local artisans whose paintings and sculptures have shaped the religious space over time. Visitors can notice the craftsmanship in these pieces as they walk through the building.

The church is accessible during worship times and offers visitors a peaceful space to explore at their own pace. Guided visits can be arranged to learn more about the architectural features and religious objects inside.

The building contains a painting titled Apparition du Christ à saint Martin, created by painter Heinrich Kaiser during medieval times. This work is a rare example of medieval artistry in the region.
