Saint Martin Church
Highlight • Other
The Saint-Martin church of La Croix-du-Perche, composed of a single nave without aisles, dates from the 12th century. At this date, the church is the chapel of a priory founded around 1250 by the Abbey of the Holy Trinity of Tiron. The church only became a parish when the monks left, towards the end of the 16th century.
The monument is remarkable for its 16th century framework, entirely decorated with paintings dated 1537.
The building was classified as a historic monument in 1934.

Saint Lubin Church
Highlight • Other
The Saint-Lubin church, built on a sloping site, is a vast building with juxtaposed constructions, bearing witness to renovations and additions up to the 19th century, the oldest distinguished by the presence of grison, the most recent by limestone and flint.
The sanctuary was ceded in 1077 by the monks of Saint-Denis de Nogent-le-Rotrou to the monks of the Saint-Père de Chartres abbey.
Built in the 11th-12th century, the nave extended by a semi-circular apse is the oldest part of the church, in Romanesque style. In the thickness of the north walls of the nave are still visible the grison bonds which bear witness to the original openings.
The building was considerably enlarged in the 15th and 16th centuries by the construction of a large transept, formed of two chapels, and a south aisle forming an alignment of gables attached to the slopes decorated with leafy motifs and finished with chimeras.
The construction of the north aisle, just begun, was not finished. On the outside, on the west wall of the chapel, we can see the beginning of a first bay (stone arch and walls removed that remained unfinished).
On the gable of the north transept, the walled door can be seen from the pointed arch and the ornate pinnacles, characteristic of the end of the 15th century. In the center, two animals present a coat of arms. On each side of the door, niches with canopies once housed statues. Above, we can still see a coat of arms presented by two bearded figures and probably surmounted by God the Father.
According to local tradition, all or part of the extensions were due to the generosity of Florimont Robertet, who owned the barony of Brou from 1509 until his death in 1527, and it was because of this that the work was interrupted.
Occupied by the revolutionaries, the building became a ten-day temple in 1794; it was finally returned to worship in 1802.
Burnt down by lightning in 1813, the upper part of the bell tower, which was a slender spire, was replaced by the construction of a square limestone tower pierced with louvers. On the southern part of the bell tower, a turret provides access to the bells.
In the southern part of the nave, a door, now blocked and highlighted by a basket-handle arch topped with a pinnacle, provided access to the cemetery that once surrounded the church.
The building can boast of having preserved very uniform oak furniture, most of which was made in the second half of the 18th century.

Notre-Dame Church
Highlight • Other
Between 1030 and 1046, a charter mentions the donation by a lady Berthe and her children to the Saint-Père abbey of Chartres, of the estate and the church of Chapelle-Royale.
Part of the western facade of the Notre-Dame church and the eaves walls pierced with tiny Romanesque windows appear to date back to this foundation. Towards the end of the 15th century, between 1460 and 1500, four large windows with flamboyant tracery were opened in the choir; the glass windows, which dated from the 17th century, have disappeared with the exception of a medallion representing Christ on the cross with the Virgin and a holy woman at his feet.
The building is a simple rectangle measuring 28 m by 10 m, covered with a wooden vault with tie beams; the entrance closest to the altar is fluted and has devouring monsters at its ends. In the north wall opened a door with a lowered arch, decorated with sculptures (cherubs and flowers), which was walled up. A small niche, made in the pillar next to this door, once housed a statue of Saint Blaise.
On the roof of the nave rises the octagonal spire of the bell tower, made of wood covered with slate.
The Safeguarding of French Art contributed in 1992 for 10,000 F to the repair of the roof damaged by a storm.

Saint John the Baptist Church
Highlight • Other
This 13th, 15th and 16th century church does not have a transept. It has a central shingled nave with aisles. The choir ends with a polygonal apse. The apse is decorated with glass roofs dating from 1541 representing various scenes from the Passion.
These 16th century stained glass windows (bays 1 to 4) have been partially classified as historic monuments since 1908. Bays 1 and 2 were restored in the 17th century thanks to the Bourbon-Conti family, lords of Bazoche-Gouet from 1676 in 1719, the 4 in the 19th century, then in 1974, by Michel Petit, master glassmaker whose workshop is located in Thivars in Eure-et-Loir.
Outside the choir, the stained glass windows are from the 19th century, made by two renowned master glassmakers, the Lorin workshops in Chartres and the Carmel stained glass factory in Le Mans, the first in a neo-Romanesque style, the second approaching the neo-Romanesque style. Gothic.
