The Ministère de la Culture's notice

L'église a été intérieurement complètement refaite. Les piliers ont été sectionnés au niveau des chapiteaux, et les voûtes sur arcs d'ogives remplacées par une fausse voûte. Dans le clocher roman a été ouvert, au 16e siècle, un porche orné de choux frisés, d'un blason martelé, et de colonnettes en arcs brisés se coupant.

The church has been completely remade on the interior. The pillars were cut at the level of the capitals, and the rib vaults replaced by a false vault. In the Romanesque bell tower was opened, in the 16th century, a porch ornamented with curly kale, a hammered escutcheon, and small columns in interlocking pointed arches.
