About the location

Église Saint-Maurice de Sens

8 quai Fausse Rivière, 89100 Sens

Bourgogne-Franche-Comté

This 13th century church dedicated to Saint-Maurice dates from the second half of the 12th century. The apse and the portal were redesigned in the 16th and 18th centuries. The high altar comes from a chapel of the Cathedral of Sens and the bas-relief of 1567 close to the iconography of Jean Cousin perfectly illustrates the architecture of the Renaissance.
