Église Saint-Martin de Palaiseau

The church features solid stone walls, rounded arches, and a twenty-six meter spire constructed during the nineteenth century renovation period.

Queen Bathilde established an abbey on the church site during the seventh century, though no remains of this original structure exist today.

The church vault contains the transferred remains of the Arnauld family following the destruction of Port-Royal des Champs in 1711.

Regular religious services take place in this monument historique, which stands at Place de l'Église in central Palaiseau.

The western facade displays a fourteenth-century Virgin and Child sculpture above its Romanesque portal, classified as a historical monument in 1902.
