Église Saint-Euverte, Medieval church in eastern Orléans, France.

Saint-Euverte Church features Romanesque architecture with a three-story bell tower topped by an early 17th-century dome.

Built in the 9th century on Saint Euverte's tomb, the church was demolished twice during the Hundred Years War to prevent English forces from using it.

The religious building, originally named Notre-Dame-du-Mont, became an important center for canons following the Rule of Saint Augustine in the 12th century.

The Orléans municipality has allocated 7.5 million euros for the complete restoration of this historically classified monument.

This church maintains its strategic position in the city's third medieval wall, demonstrating its historical defensive role.

Walking in Orléans: between stone and Loire where every street has a story to tell

People often think they know Orleans, but the city always has something to tell. Behind its impressive cathedral, one discovers a lively old town with cobbled streets, half-timbered facades, and squares perfect for stopping. The history blends with the enjoyment of life: Joan of Arc still watches over the Place du Martroi, museums reveal their hidden treasures, and the banks of the Loire invite sunny walks. Along the quays, you encounter gardens, churches, Renaissance houses, and busy weekend markets. The city has maintained its calm pace without ceasing to surprise, balancing heritage, culture, and nature. Orleans is best explored at a slow pace, the one preferred by those who enjoy observing details, breathing the river air, and rediscovering their own city at every corner.
