Église Notre-Dame, Gothic church in Cholet, France

The Notre-Dame Church stands in the center of Cholet with two white spires reaching 65 meters high, making it visible across the urban landscape.

The original chapel from the 11th century evolved into a parish church before being demolished and rebuilt between 1814 and 1820 under Curé Beurier's supervision.

The interior of Notre-Dame Church contains the Triumph of the Virgin painting and marble sculptures created by local artist Hippolyte Maindron.

Notre-Dame Church contains four bells, including Marie-Joseph, a 1,500-kilogram bourdon bell installed in 1848 that rings for services and celebrations.

Black letters marking stonemasons' initials remain visible on the facade, a system used to track their work and ensure accurate payment.
