About the location

Église Saint-Martin

5 place de l'Église 91160 Longjumeau

Essonne
Île-de-France

Built in the Gothic style, probably on Merovingian foundations, it is said to have been built around 1250\. Its originality is undoubtedly its lantern of the dead. Note also the portal, dated from the 15th century which is one of the most beautiful of the Île-de-France. Two buildings enlarged the church: the baptismal font in 1730 and the sacristy in 1750\. During the Revolution, some surprising events took place in the church: the arrest of the vicar Nativelle, the conversion of the place into "Temple of reason", the celebration of the feast of "the Supreme Being" and a multitude of political meetings.
