Église Saint-Savin Abbeys, Churches, Priories in Larrivière-Saint-Savin

The Saint-Savin Church of Larrivière-Saint-Savin, in the Landes region, is a place of worship whose history is marked by several reconstructions. The first church, a Romanesque-style oratory dating from the 12th century, was destroyed in 1569. It was replaced by a Gothic-style church, which, in turn, was destroyed in 1860. The current building was built in 1868, and its interior renovation took place in 2001. Its 19th-century architecture is distinguished by a rectangular plan with three naves and a bell tower topped with a polygonal slate spire.

The town is home to another, more famous place of worship, the Notre-Dame-du-Rugby Chapel, which attracts many visitors. This chapel, built in the 13th century, was dedicated to rugby following the death of several local players in the 1960s. It has become a place of pilgrimage for rugby enthusiasts, where jerseys and player memorabilia are on display. The history of the parish church and this chapel bears witness to the richness and diversity of Larrivière-Saint-Savin's heritage.
