Historic Churches of Ubaye

The Ubaye Valley preserves a diverse collection of religious heritage, ranging from grand baroque-influenced parish churches to secluded high-altitude chapels. These sites reflect the region's history of transhumance and cross-border trade, often featuring traditional Alpine stonework, sundials, and ornate altarpieces. Notable examples include the remote church in Maurin at the valley's head and the Romanesque foundations of Saint-Pons, showcasing centuries of mountain devotion.
