Historique
L'église se compose de trois nefs voûtées en berceau. La croisée est recouverte par une coupole polygonale reposant sur des trompillons. Les absides sont en cul de four. La façade est divisée en trois parties accusant les nefs intérieures. Le centre est occupé par une porte à triple arcatures, richement sculptée. Les deux autres côtés sont décorés de sujets. L'édifice a subi, au 15e siècle, des modifications importantes qui ont dénaturé son aspect primitif.
