Église Notre-Dame-des-Champs de Mostuéjouls, Romanesque church in Mostuéjouls, Aveyron, France

The église Notre-Dame-des-Champs de Mostuéjouls is a Romanesque church of light grey stone set behind a low stone wall, with a pitched roof and a lower gabled section facing the entrance. A square tower with arched openings and a hipped roof rises above the crossing, and a rounded apse with one small arched window stands left of the entrance. A tall, dark cypress-like tree grows against the tower's left side, and small grave markers stand in front.

First mentioned in 1082 in a deed of donation to the Abbey of Saint-Victor in Marseille, the Romanesque chapel was then dedicated to Saint Peter and served as both priory and parish church. At the end of the 12th century the monks added large rectangular buttresses to the outer walls. The main alterations came in the 16th or 17th century, when the Romanesque apses were replaced by vaulted chapels with pointed arches. Unused by 1738 and threatened with ruin, it was repaired in 1742, ceased to be the parish church, and in the 19th century served as a barn. Abbot Fuzier restored it in 1896-1897, when it received its dedication to Notre-Dame-des-Champs; it was classified as a monument historique in 1930.

The church was first dedicated to Saint Peter and only received the name Notre-Dame-des-Champs in 1896-1897, when Abbot Fuzier restored it. It stands on the bank of the Tarn, about 1 km northwest of the confluence of the Tarn and the Jonte, below the Causse de Sauveterre plateau. A cemetery surrounds it on the north side.

The church was first mentioned in 1082 under the name Saint-Pierre, in a deed of donation to the Abbey of Saint-Victor in Marseille. It kept that dedication for over seven centuries; only after Abbot Fuzier's restoration of 1896-1897 did it receive the name Notre-Dame-des-Champs.
