The first phase of the church restoration project in Étiolles was completed on Tuesday, October 13, following work on the foundations and roof.

The first phase of the church restoration project, led by the municipality, is complete. This major undertaking began with significant foundation work, carried out methodically and rigorously to consolidate the building's weakened structure.
After a technical suspension, the work resumed thanks to the mobilization of the municipality and close consultation between the architect Aedificio, the company Schneider, the parish, the association of Friends of the Church, and the architect of French buildings. These underpinning works have durably secured the structure.
The phase dedicated to the roof was relaunched in early October by the company Schneider. The acceptance of the roof and gutter work took place this Tuesday, October 13, followed by the dismantling of the scaffolding. The building is now watertight, protecting the completed work from bad weather.
Phase 2 of the project, focusing on the bell tower and interior restoration, is scheduled for early 2027. It will continue under the impetus of the commune and in consultation with project partners.
