Historique
Petit édifice roman qui semble remonter à la fin du 11e siècle, mentionné dans une chronique du 12e siècle. Il se compose d'une nef unique voûtée en plein cintre, terminée par un abside semi-circulaire dont la voûte est un peu plus élevée que celle de la nef. Une toiture unique recouvre la nef et l'abside. La façade occidentale a subi quelques modifications. La porte est surmontée d'une archivolte du 14e siècle. Le pignon supporte un petit clocher à arcade.

It consists of a single nave with barrel vault, terminated by a semi-circular apse whose vault is slightly higher than that of the nave. A single roof covers the nave and apse. The western façade has undergone some modifications. The door is surmounted by a 14th century archivolt. The gable supports a small arcade bell tower.
