Located in the heart of the village, Santa Maria de Auricula church was the property of the diocese of Arles. In the XIIIth century, the castrum's owner, Bertrand Ybilion, gave it to the community of Arles which was not able to manage it. Aureille was deserted.
This parochial church was rebuilt in the XIXth century by Auguste Véran, architect from Arles.
