Heritage
Saint-Hilaire church was built in several stages between the 12th and 16th century. It is a listed historic monument since 6 March 1928.[3] It is holding a copy of a 17th century painting by Jean Jouvenet representing the Visitation of the Virgin created for the choir of the cathedral Notre-Dame de Paris.
