Église Saint-Antoine des Hauts-Buttés

The Église Saint-Antoine des Hauts-Buttés is a Gothic Revival church in Monthermé, spanning a significant length from entrance to choir and featuring a wide transept. The building displays typical Revival features with carefully detailed elements throughout its interior spaces.

Construction began in 1874 under the direction of priest Justin Wimet, and the building was consecrated three years later. Archbishop Langénieux of Reims performed the consecration ceremony in 1877.

The church is dedicated to Saint Anthony and carries his name since its founding. Visitors notice numerous votive offerings left on the walls by people who sought help from the saint.

Visitors should explore the church interior during daylight hours when the light best reveals the Gothic Revival details. The elevated location means access requires a modest climb, so plan your visit with adequate time.

The church houses a precious relic of Saint Anthony, a rib brought to the church in 1894. Inside you can also find an ancient bell dating from 1487, originally from an old mills chapel.
