Croisilles: Holiday apartments and holiday homes
Culture
The Church of Saint Martin in Croisilles is known for its remarkable stained-glass windows. It was built between 1924 and 1933 as part of the first reconstruction, in a regionalist neo-Romanesque style. The windows were designed by Julien Vosch and produced in the 1930s and 1950s.
