Saint-Pierre Church

The elements of this bench date from the 18th century.
The parish is administered by fabriciens and marguillers, the latter constituting the permanent commission of the parish assembly.
Among the fabriciens (between 20 and 30) are officers, lawyers, but also craftsmen (stonemasons, masons, butchers, bakers, winegrowers). The 4 "marguillers" (churchwardens) were notables (mainly middle-class), but not necessarily nobles.
On Sundays, after high mass, the fabriciens and marguillers assembled in the church, with the latter occupying the pew.
These assemblies discussed a wide range of subjects: maintenance of the building and furnishings, appointment of the schoolmaster and cantors, setting church fees (burials, marriages, baptisms, ringers' salaries, pew and stall rentals), acceptance or refusal of donations and bequests made to the church.
Wine-making matters were also discussed, as Saint Pierre had numerous vineyards.
