Église Saint-Léonard de Fougères, Gothic church in Haute Ville district, Fougères, France.

The Saint-Leonard Church features a six-meter diameter rose window on its main facade and displays multiple stone gargoyles along its walls.

The religious structure, initially constructed in the 12th century by Pontlevoy monks, underwent substantial renovations between 1407 and 1636.

The south chapel contains a 13th-century stained glass window, transferred from Saint-Denis Abbey near Paris, representing the oldest glass art in Brittany.

Religious services take place every Sunday at 11:00 AM, and visitors can access the bell tower during peak tourist seasons.

The church houses a Louis Debierre organ from 1881, which received restoration work between 1991 and 1994.
