About

Saint Martin Church is a parish Catholic church located in Herblay-sur-Seine, France. It was built from the second half of the 12th century in Gothic style. The transept is the oldest part.

The nave, rather long, is a little more recent, and can be dated from the late twelfth or early thirteenth century. Its coasts, however, were rebuilt in modern times, and lost their interest. The elegant central bell tower, whose bays are flanked by multiple columns, is certainly the most emblematic part of the Gothic building.

Between about 1500 and 1535, his choir was replaced by a vast complex of flamboyant Gothic style, which consists of three spans, ending with a bedside with cut strips, and two collaterals, also with cut strips. Its architecture is neat, and there are still five Renaissance-style windows dating from the years 1537-1540 and restored around 1881. They are the main attraction of the church.

It was listed as a historical monument by order of 6 July 1925. Sunday Masses are celebrated every Sunday at 9.30am and 11am.
