The Église Saint-Martin was consecrated on 14 September 1529.
The church houses a wooden panel painted on both sides: one side depicts Saint Martin, while the other shows a saintly bishop.
The choir of the Église Saint-Martin may have been the former chapel of the Seigneurs d'O.
The Soviet statues were donated by the USSR to the CGT and erected in the grounds of the château during the Popular Front. The statues by Joseph Tchaïkov adorned the Soviet Pavilion at the Paris Exhibition of Art and Technology in Modern Life in 1937. The Soviet sculptures were later broken up, taken to a remote location and forgotten in the château's icehouse. Concrete statues from the Soviet Pavilion erected in Paris in 1937 were recently found in the icehouse of the château of Baillet-en-France.
