The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Eglise probablement d'époque romane, qui fut très retouchée au 14e siècle. L'appareil des murs est constitué de grès ferrugineux. Une nef unique, élargie vers l'est à mi-distance, se termine par un chevet plat. L'ensemble est lambrissé. A l'ouest se trouve le clocher soutenu par un immense arc de décharge brisé, contenant lui-même un portail en tiers-point.

History
Church probably of Romanesque period, which was heavily altered in the 14th century. The masonry of the walls is composed of ferruginous sandstone. A single nave, widened towards the east midway, terminates in a flat chevet. The whole is panelled. To the west is found the bell tower supported by a huge broken relieving arch, containing within itself a pointed arch portal.
