Culture and history

The present-day Eglise de Baulay was rebuilt approximately between 1833 and 1840 and consecrated on 18 May 1851. Its floor plan is in the shape of a Latin cross, and the church stands on a terrace. The main portal is located in the bell-tower porch, which can be reached via an external staircase.

The Eglise de Baulay contains a silver reliquary statuette of Saint Bartholomew from the 17th century, which has been protected as a historic monument since 29 September 1966.
