Église Saint-Côme et Saint-Damien
Rue François de Ganay 95270 Luzarches
Built on an old building, it was dedicated in the 8th century to Saints Como and Damian, twin brothers, patrons of doctors. Its picturesque aspect is due to the harmonious juxtaposition of Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance elements: the Romanesque choir is from the 11th century, the chapel of Saints Como and Damian of the 12th century and the Gothic chapel of the Virgin of the 13th century. The richly decorated portal, designed by the Luzarchois architect Nicolas de Saint-Michel, is typical of the 2nd Renaissance. A large part of the interior furniture evoking St-Côme and Damien (paintings, sculptures,....) recalls the existence of the pilgrimage St Côme-St Damien of the medical professions.
