Our Ladies' Assomption church Droyes / FRANCE description:

The history of this church is not very clear.

We think it's current shape dates from 1647, but there are clearly elder parts. The oldest part is the 3-aisled nave in romanesque style probably from the 11th century. The choir has gothic lancet windows, and there is crossing tower.

The grondlan is a Latin cross.
