The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Prieuré bénédictin signalé en 1365 comme faisant partie de la châtellenie de Bergerac. L'église romane se termine par un choeur voûté en cul de four. Une seule chapelle à gauche. Coupole reposant sur de massifs piliers. Chapiteaux sculptés dans cette partie : hypocampes, hiboux, tête humaine, serpents, colombes à queue de serpent buvant dans un calice, grappes de raisin, tête de cheval, poissons... Un bâtiment est adossé à l'église, avec tour ronde du 15e siècle, sans doute un vestige du prieuré.

Benedictine priory noted in 1365 as forming part of the castellany of Bergerac. The Romanesque church ends with a choir barrel-vaulted. A single chapel on the left. Dome resting on massive pillars. Sculptured capitals in this part: seahorses, owls, human head, serpents, doves with serpent tail drinking from a chalice, grape bunches, horse head, fish... A building is attached to the church, with a round tower of the 15th century, no doubt a remnant of the priory.
