Église Saint-Gervais de Rouen, Romanesque Revival church in Rouen, France

The Saint-Gervais church features two wide side aisles and stands prominently with its stone retables in each apsidal chapel.

The church was rebuilt between 1868 and 1874 by architects Martin and Marical, replacing an ancient sanctuary from Carolingian times.

The choir paintings represent the patron saints of the church and the first evangelizers of the diocese in the Roman Catholic tradition.

The church contains a Cavaillé-Coll organ from 1889 and remains open for visits at 8 Rue Louis Thubeuf in Rouen.

William the Conqueror spent his final moments in this location in September 1087 after sustaining injuries in the Vexin battle.
