Culture

Rich Renaissance houses with sculpted façades line Marville’s historic streets and lead to the Église Saint-Nicolas. The church was built in the developing town of Marville to replace the cramped and remote original church in the Saint-Hilaire cemetery.

In the Église Saint-Nicolas, the nave and aisles feature quadripartite rib vaults over rectangular floor plans and are connected by pointed arches. The single-shaft columns each support capitals with different foliage designs. Among Marville’s historic houses, multi-storey cellars have also been preserved.

The Cimetière et chapelle Saint-Hilaire in Marville was classified as a historic monument on 13 August 1931. The site comprises the surrounding wall, the chapel, the ossuary, the small caretaker’s house, the graves, holy-water fonts, as well as sculptures and fragments of sculptures.

La Folle Semaine de Marville is a cultural event at which professional instructors teach techniques and skills associated with trades that contributed to Marville’s prosperity.
