The church of Chéronvilliers has been listed as a historical monument since April 24, 1953. The protection covers the entire building (interior and exterior). This building contributes to the beauty of the Eure landscapes and the richness of France's heritage. Over the centuries, the buildings, which have been grafted or agglomerated in the surrounding area, have been built within the framework of a social structure: the parish. These buildings constitute references in terms of local architecture, because they are often made with local materials: tiles or slates (from the 19th century), stones (flint, Grison, Seine Valley, sandstone, etc.), bricks or cob, lime plaster and nearby sand or earth. This gives colors that often range from beige to brown or red, and volumes perfectly suited to the Normandy climate (roof slopes, etc.). These churches have been the subject of specific analysis work because their surroundings are not completely urbanized. The empty spaces or breathing spaces located nearby help to preserve their setting. The site of the church is very interesting because, located in a very diffuse urban fabric, it opens onto the agricultural plots and offers beautiful views, particularly from the RD 21 to the south. These spaces must be preserved.

The parish church of Bémécourt, under the patronage of Peter and Paul, is remarkable for its timber-framed bell tower. Located in the western part of the nave, it is a square, high tower resting directly on the ground. Its very slender octagonal bell tower is covered in slate.

These churches have been the subject of specific analysis because their surroundings are not completely urbanized. The empty spaces or breathing spaces nearby help preserve their setting. The site of the church is very interesting because, located between the Iton and the very refined village square, it offers, to the south, large visual openings onto the monument. These spaces, little or not urbanized, must be preserved.
