Église Saint-Pierre - Cherré
Saint-Pierre church was rebuilt in the 19th century in Cherré, a small village in Anjou Bleu, at the crossroads of the Mayenne, Sarthe and Anjou regions.
Rebuilt in the 19th century, the church still retains its 17th-century bell tower, a reminder of its predecessor. The church was completely destroyed by fire during the Chouannerie, which explains the more recent reconstruction of the building.In 1967, restoration work uncovered paintings representing the Calvary and three ancient statues without heads, one of which represents Saint Séréné. These sculptures probably come from the Plessis aux Nonnains, a former estate in Cherré, and date from the late 11th century.
A tour guide is available to help you discover the church and its history.
