Église Sainte-Marie-Madeleine, Catholic church in Massy, France

The stone church features a tall bell tower from the 13th century, standing next to a modern nave built in the late 1950s.

Following destruction during World War II bombings in 1944, only the medieval bell tower remained standing while the rest required complete reconstruction.

The church holds regular Catholic services in both the main sanctuary and the underground crypt, maintaining religious traditions for local residents.

Visitors can access the church through the main entrance on Place du Vieux Clocher, near the banks of the Bièvre River.

Fragments of a local nobleman's tomb from 1290 were once visible in the choir area before the church's reconstruction in the 18th century.
