Culture

The Notre-Dame church in Folleville stands in the middle of a cemetery. It has an elongated floor plan and is divided into seven bays. The west façade has a single round-arched door, above which are two blind twin windows.

The interior includes the altarpiece of the main altar. It is designed with imitation grey marble, features an oil painting on canvas depicting the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in the central panel, and is decorated with two statues of angels. The altarpiece dates from the 18th century and was listed as movable cultural heritage on 21 March 1977.

The statue of Saint Sebastian is made of carved, polychrome-painted and gilded wood and dates from the 17th century. Also on 21 March 1977, the gravestone of Guillaume de Sens de Folleville's wife in the Notre-Dame church was listed as movable cultural heritage.

The sundial of the Notre-Dame church in Folleville is decorated with a winged angel holding a coat of arms bearing the arms of the Le Sens family from Folleville. The “Circuit des cadrans solaires autour de Thiberville” circular route cites the Folleville sundial as an example of the decorative function of sundials.
