Église de la Nativité de la Vierge d'Othis

About

Notre-Dame-de-la-Nativity Church is a parish Catholic church located in Othis, Seine-et-Marne, France. It was built between the late 15th and the first half of the 16th century in the flamboyant Gothic style, partly reusing the masonries of an earlier 14th century building. Only the vault keys and the richly decorated western facade are linked to the Renaissance style.

The façade, probably completed in 1573, is among the most remarkable of its time throughout the department. The church itself is a much more modest building, barely longer than wide, and of poor height. Its architecture is more neat than the almost rough lateral elevations and bedside suggest, but the monocylindrical pillars and the absence of formets reflect the economy of means.

Notre Dame Church was listed as historical monuments in 1875. Today, it is affiliated with the parish sector West-Goële, with its headquarters in Dammartin-en-Goële, and Sunday Masses are celebrated irregularly, about a Saturday night a month, at 6:30 p.m.
