Since July 17 St Martin Church in Sablé-sur-Sarthe, France, has been demolished. The church was built in the 1880s and was desecrated in 2015. The local mayor justified the demolition because of its ruinous state. The place will become a parking lot. In 1905 all churches in France were nationalised by the state.
Sablé-sur-Sarthe is the birthplace of Father Prosper Guéranger O.S.B., the founder of the famous Solesmes Abbey which is located in the area.
