The church of Saint-Maurice in Savoyeux has just been fully listed. It is open during the day and offers visitors a wealth of remains dating back to 1326. Originally the chapel of the castle, it contains in particular :
- on the left, in the nave, a Pieta dating from 1500,
- in the right-hand chapel, the standing stone of Claude de Fouchier "l'aîné", Lord of Savoyeux, who died in 1541 after serving Charles V.
Test pits were dug in 1994. They uncovered wall frescoes probably painted at the end of the 16th century and altars whose paint had been masking a multicoloured stucco of rare quality for two centuries.
