Note: this church was erroneously attributed to Saint Bernard of Clairvaux by the inhabitants of Seborga in the 1980s to support the theory that the village of Seborga was founded by the Knights Templar. We can confirm that this is a false myth, as the Principality of Sabourg, of which the village of Seborga is an integral part of the former Priory of Sabourg, is now named by His Most Reverend Highness the Prince-Abbot of Sabourg: Priory of Seborga. These autonomous territories were administered by the Benedictine monks of the Monastery of Saint Honorat de Lérins from 954 AD until 1729.
