It was at the request of the parishioners of Orgères that the decision was made to demolish the old church. Typically, this type of partial or total destruction comes from the religious hierarchy. The current church was rebuilt at the end of the 19th century. The reconstruction is quite successful, judging by the choice of materials and the proportions of the building. The stained-glass windows created by the master glazier Loire are perfectly integrated into this new ensemble.

The Saint-Liphard church features a crescent moon at the top of its bell tower, the emblem of Avignon's last known pope, Benedict XIII, known as Pedro de Luna. At least three of its stained-glass windows are by the master glassmaker Charles Lorin from Chartres, including one depicting Saint Paul (1920) and a second depicting the Virgin and Child (1923). In 2019, a fundraising campaign was sponsored by the Fondation du Patrimoine, and work began.

The tower of the church of Sainville, as well as the choir and the first three bays of the main nave, are in the Transitional Romanesque style from the end of the 12th century; the rest of the main nave and the side aisles appear to date only from the 15th century. The bell tower contains three bells. The largest, listed as a historic monument, is engraved with a quatrain: "Founded smokes all new I am the Patron of Sainville, I bear the name of St. Peter. In the year 1014. XLIX." (1549) The second, from 1821, bears this inscription: "Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for he has visited and redeemed his people." Gospel of Saint Luke, chapter 1, verse 68. The third is located above the other two.

Construction of this neo-Gothic church began in 1892. On December 8, 1895, it was inaugurated and blessed, becoming the parish church in place of the Church of Saint Rémy. However, sculptures and stained-glass windows have been added or renewed to this day. The stained-glass windows in the nave depict the Beatitudes. Seven sculpted groups in the heart of the church symbolize the sacraments.

The Saint-Martin de Viabon church dates back to the 11th century. Its plan includes a nave ending in a semicircular apse. In the 15th century, a four-bay aisle forming gables was erected to the north. The bell tower also dates from this period. Adjacent to the south wall of the choir, it is octagonal in shape and pierced by sixteen overlapping pointed arches. It rests on a quadrangular tower with powerful buttresses. A semicircular arch known as a "wolf's tooth" arch survives between two buttresses in the south wall of the nave. It is surmounted by a small sculpted stone head at the base of the pointed arch window. The apse's framework is ancient. In 1862, the paneling of the main nave was replaced by a plaster-covered latticework with faux stone carvings. The restoration of the choir walls and vault, as well as the hollow brick vault of the side aisle, also dates from the same period. This building underwent numerous interior alterations in the 19th century. The eastern end of the side aisle is occupied by the Chapel of the Virgin, entirely decorated with paintings and gilding in 1887. For the restoration of the framework and roof, particularly the end of the side aisle, the Sauvegarde de l'Art Français (French Art Protection Agency) awarded a donation of €17,000 in 2002.

Building built to commemorate the battles of Loigny-la-Bataille on December 2, 1870. Nine thousand men fell in combat. The church was designed by the architect Lucien Douillard. The apse and the ossuary crypt, square in plan, are connected by two spiral staircases. The walls of the apse and the vault are decorated with paintings of historical and religious motifs, and covered with commemorative marble plaques bearing the names of the 700 recognized soldiers. The crypt preserves the tombs of Generals de Sonis and de Charette, as well as the bones of killed soldiers.

The church of Guillonville, in Eure et Loir, in the Center-Val de Loire, is attached to the parish of Saint Martin en Beauce, of the Deanery of Beauce, in the diocese of Chartres. The church is placed under the protection of Saint Peter.

The Saint André church (13th-15th-16th centuries) In the 7th century, the Benedictine abbey of Bonneval created a priory-curate. Its existence is confirmed by a bull from Pope Gregory second half of the 16th century. In 1793 the church was desecrated and transformed into wine and spirits warehouses. In 1801, the church was returned to worship and changed diocese: from the diocese of Chartres, to which it belonged before the Revolution, it passed to the diocese of Orléans, notably for reasons of distance: Chartres is 48 km from Patay then that Orléans is only 27 km away. The church is 30 m long and 17 m wide. The oldest parts are located near the large porch (13th century). One of the pillars of the nave is decorated with a vestige of Danse Macabre from the mid-15th century. A small masonry door on the right communicated with the old priory, of which ruins remain to the south of the church. The choir dates from the 14th century; the apse wall was decorated with paintings at the end of the 19th century, the chapels were then redeveloped and equipped with new stained glass windows. The keystones of the large nave were made from casts taken from the figurines which adorn the Thesis Room of the University of Orléans, built in 1411. The bell tower, located to the north of the choir, would be an old watchtower. Its pinnacles and eight openings were made after the Wars of Religion. The four bells were melted in 1868. The largest was cracked by a Prussian shell in 1870 and was recast in 1871. Since that year, Ernestine (809 kg, 1 m 12 in diameter at the base, sounding the F), Gabrielle (550 kg, 0.981 m in diameter, sounding the ground), Anne (398 kg, 0.573 m in diameter) and Marie (222 kg, 0.724 m in diameter, sounding the C) give rhythm to the daily life of the small town of Patay, old Beauceron railway junction. On August 15, 1944, an ammunition train was blown up at Patay station. The station was blown up, except for the carriage shed, and all the windows in the town were shattered. Luckily, a providential storm limited the damage. The only two stained glass windows that survived the explosion are those on the right side aisle which date from 1930 and relate the communion of Joan of Arc in the Patay church in 1429. The church was listed as a Historic Monument in 1925 by decree of October 6, 1925.
