Eglise Saint Martin

The parish church of Larressore is dedicated to Saint Martin and dates from the end of the 19th century. First mentioned in the 13th century when Larressore was an important stop on the road to Santiago de Compostela, the church of St. Martin was rebuilt several times. The current building was built in 1893 and replaces an old building dating from the 17th century. Restored and refurbished between 1967 and 1970, the church has two floors of wooden galleries reserved for men during masses in the Basque tradition. Its interior also houses discoid and tabular stelae and a remarkable statue of Pietà dating from the 16th century. The Virgin of Mercy in the church of Saint-Martin is classified as a Historic Monument.
