History

Church composed of an oblong nave followed by a rectangular choir. The nave, of which only the north gutter wall is Romanesque, is vaulted with a modern ceiling that cuts across the high triumphal arch. On the south side is found a chapel vaulted with a broken barrel vault, which was to be vaulted with ribs as two columns engaged in the south-east and south-west angles testify. A two-seat confessional has been cut into the north wall of this chapel. On the exterior, the western façade was rebuilt in the early 19th century, preserving the portal whose three voussures of broken arches rest on colonnettes with carved capitals, the archivolt resting on masks. This façade terminates in a bell gable with three round-arch campanile openings. On the chevet, a small bell tower was erected in 1877, succeeding an old bell gable with curved rampants pierced with two openings.
