Église Saint-Denis de Serans, Medieval church in Serans, France

The Saint-Denis church stands on the southern slope of Molière hill, featuring a high nave and remarkable Gothic architecture from the 16th century.

The original Romanesque church was built around 1100, with its bell tower still displaying diamond-pointed bays and ornamental brackets from that period.

The west portal houses a polychrome statue of Saint Denis, who according to tradition walked while carrying his decapitated head to the site of his basilica.

The church belongs to the Saint-François du Vexin parish community of Vexin-Ouest, and is accessible from Rue de l'Église in Serans.

The nave interior contains twelve paired niches along the walls, which formerly held apostle statues beneath Renaissance-style canopies with refined sculptural details.
