The chapel Saint-Omer was built in 1230. In the 16th century, the body of the church was added, giving the buildings its current structure. The plan of the church is simple: a bell tower, a stone nave covered with a paneled vault, a choir, two chapels and a sacristy (seventeenth century). You can notice the cross vaulted transept ogives (sixteenth century) complex drawing.

The Saint-Omer church is located in Ochtezeele, in the Hauts-de-France region. The church was built on the foundations of a former 12th century oratory, whose main facade can still be seen on the western side, and is the main witness to the original Romanesque style building. The enlargement of the building took place in the 15th-16th century. Built on a church-hall plan, very popular in the coastal region, the church includes an octagonal bell tower which is one of the highest in Flanders.

The Church of Saint-Omer church is located in Setques, in the Hauts-de-France region. The Gothic style building reflects the high monuments after the wars of the sixteenth century. The flat chevet of the choir and the lower level of the tower date from the late sixteenth or early seventeenth century. In the 18th century, restorations were made, as the church was rebuilt in 1863, on the same foundations, but with buttresses.

The Church of Saint-Omer is in the centre of the village and the actual state of the chalk stone blocks with which it is built shows several phases of construction and restoration.

Given to the Abbey of Lyre in the eleventh century, the pre-Romanesque church was a simple building in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, with a single nave extended by a slightly narrower long choir vault. In 1792, the church Saint-Ouen de Rubremont, became "the public room of the common house" - then a barn that passed into the hands of several owners. It was only in 2010 and with the creation of a local association that the church was restored.

A jewel of 15th and 16th century architecture, it offers an example of the richness of Breton Gothic. In 1867, Arthur Regnault, a prolific architect in Ille-et-Vilaine, replaced the old structural bell tower with a Cornish style stone bell tower. What makes the beauty and interest of the church is not only the beautiful architectural layout of the building, the sculptural details that cover its walls, the elegance of its flamboyant windows and its pediments crowned with flowers, but also the quality of its 16th century stained glass windows. The Passion, Annunciation and Adoration of the Magi, but also scenes from the life of the Virgin are revealed in all the magic of colours.

The Church of Saint-Ouen in Normandy was built around the 11th-12th century, and is composed of a Romanesque three span nave and a choir, set back, of three flat chevet bays. It is covered with a slate roof, and a sacristy rests against the east wall of the choir, and a belfry covers the cross of the transept. Inside the building, there are many classified objects.

The church dates back to the Romanesque period, as can be seen from the external buttresses of the nave and the rubble of the bell tower and choir. The bell tower is located at the level of the first bay of the nave and was built in 1843. The three-sided chevet extends the nave with a slight recess. The whole building is vaulted in stave wood. The high altar is in the Louis XV style. The center of the altarpiece is made of a canvas, representing the Holy Family, given by François Guizot (1787-1874) and coming from the Val Richer abbey, near the church. Numerous paintings and sculptures can be seen in the church.
