The Notre-Dame church is the most notable heritage of the commune; it is in the Romanesque style, with the exception of the bell tower dating from 1689. It houses a monument and a funerary slab, several painted wooden statues, a sculpted group of the Three Marys, a lectern, an altarpiece, and a 16th-century bell, all classified as historical monuments. It includes a healing fountain known as the Trois-Marie fountain, a restored washhouse, a pond, and two lakes, including the Étang Marcel Huart, which is suitable for fishing. Its inhabitants are called "Méréglisiens" and "Méréglisiennes".

The village of La Croix-du-Perche is located in the Perche Regional Natural Park, about 50 km (driving distance) southwest of Chartres at an altitude of approx. 215 m. The next largest small town is Nogent-le-Rotrou (approx. 20 km west). The climate is highly influenced by the sea and therefore almost frost-free; rain (approx. 680 mm/year) falls evenly throughout the year.

Built on an old feudal motte, which is still visible and was completely destroyed during the Hundred Years' War, it was replaced in the second half of the 15th century by the castle, the remains of which can still be seen today. The Saint-François Tower remains as it was, with its Grisons base and rows of white stone. Halfway up the circle is the Cord of Saint Francis of Assisi, with its coils and knots. A Renaissance building was added in the 16th century, and new buildings were constructed in the 17th and 18th centuries.

Unfortunately, the church was not accessible when I visited (mid-September 2024). You could only look in through a gate and the dance of death depictions on the left side were not really visible. In front of them were transparencies with skeleton drawings. Maybe those were the depictions...
