Like a tower moored to a large vessel, the imposing silhouette of the Saint-Roch church stands out in the Soiron landscape.
Established on a mound at the end of the central square, the Saint-Roch church occupies a privileged position in the village. Its imposing silhouette stands out in the landscape. Beyond this initial perception, a graceful unity emerges from the whole.
First mentioned in 1086, the church was rebuilt (apart from its tower) between 1703 and 1725 following the earthquake of 1692. The tower, dated 1627, is absorbed by the powerful dimensions of the nave and choir and seems to be moored to a large vessel.
