Église Saint-Gilles, Medieval church in Levainville, France.

Saint-Gilles Church features a rough stone structure measuring 20 meters in length and 8.5 meters in width, with a nave extending 12.5 meters.

In 1536, Jeanne d'Angest, widow of Georges Cochefilet, received permission from the Bishop of Chartres to transform the chapel into Saint-Gilles parish church.

The stained glass windows, created in 1894 by master glazier Charles Lorin, display images of the Virgin Mary and Saint Gilles, replacing earlier plain glass panels.

The church accommodates two hundred people and belongs to the Bienheureuse Marie Poussepin parish under the jurisdiction of the Chartres diocese.

A tombstone measuring 1.90 meters by 0.90 meters displays the effigy of a knight mounted on a lion with the Cochefilet family coat of arms.
