Église Saint Etienne, Roman Catholic church in Espelette, France.

The Saint Etienne Church features thick stone walls, buttresses, and a fortress-like bell tower built in 1627 near the town center.

The church gained official recognition as a historical monument in 1923, preserving its Renaissance portal and architectural elements for future generations.

Three wooden gallery levels inside the church reflect social arrangements until 1970, when men sat separately from women and children.

Weekly mass takes place every Tuesday at 5:00 PM, while Sunday mass times vary and require confirmation from Cambo-les-Bains presbytery.

The church houses a gilded wooden baroque altarpiece from the 18th century depicting scenes of Saint Stephen's arrest and stoning.
