Église Notre-Dame de Vétheuil, Catholic church in Vétheuil, France.

Église Notre-Dame de Vétheuil is a Gothic and Renaissance church whose west facade is framed by two slender stair turrets with domed lanterns and topped by a rounded gable. The nave has a narrow central vessel with wide, tall side aisles and a second row of chapels. The choir ends in a half-round apse under a six-part ribbed vault, and the crossing tower opens through paired arched sound openings.

The parish is first documented at the end of the 11th century, when Guy de La Roche gave the church to the Abbey of the Trinity at Fécamp; the act was signed by Abbot William of Rots, abbot from 1078 to 1107. The Romanesque bell tower of the first half of the 12th century survives inside the present tower. Construction of the new choir began at the end of the 12th century and was completed in the early 13th century, and the tower was rebuilt in Gothic style during that same century. The western parts date from the first half of the 16th century: in 1551 the local lord called on the Italian-born master mason Jean Grappin, who built the south portal and the west facade with its two turrets.

The church was woven into local life through guilds and brotherhoods that maintained individual chapels over centuries. These community groups shaped the interior's appearance and show how deeply faith and daily work were connected in this riverside town.

The entrance involves climbing a series of wide steps topped by a Renaissance calvary monument. Visitors should be prepared for this climb and wear comfortable shoes, as reaching the church requires some effort.

The carved altarpiece in a side chapel originally had seven scenes of the Passion. It was stolen in the 1960s and 1970s, and four scenes — the Flagellation, the Kiss of Judas, the Descent from the Cross and the Entombment — were recovered and returned.
