Discover this church that burned down during the Thirty Years' War, rebuilt in 1733 and now pays tribute to Joan of Arc through the stained glass windows telling her story.

At the time of Jehanne, the villages of Greux and Domremy were united in the same parish. In 1635, the church under the dedication of Saint Maurice burned after the Thirty Years' War and was rebuilt in 1733. A few years later, Joan of Arc will be brought to light through splendid stained glass windows telling her story.
«I was born in the village of Domremy which is one with the village of Greux: in Greux is the main church». Jehanne – Trial for the conviction of Jehanne d'Arc - 21 February 1431
