Notre-Dame-des-Marais Church

Notre-Dame-des-Marais in La Ferté-Bernard is a jewel of the flamboyant Gothic style, built on drained marshes between the 14th and 17th centruries. Remarkable as much by its Gothic and Renaissance architecture as by its stained glass windows (late 15th, 16th and 19th century), it also has a 'swallow's nest' organ (1536) and a 15th century alabaster treasure.

Church oriented with a Latin cross plan and Gothic style. Although the western gable façade is very sober, the rest of the exterior decoration of the building is in the flamboyant Gothic style. Inside, the church is bright and the filling of its stained-glass windows reveals skilful late Gothic forms.
