The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Eglise du 12e siècle, modifiée entre la fin du 15e et le 16e siècle avec deux bas-côtés voûtés encadrant une nef à charpente apparente. Le clocher, commencé en 1506, a vu sa flèche reconstruite deux fois. Des transformations sont apportées à la fin du 19e siècle par l'architecte Jules Mondet : allongement et décalage du bas-côté sud vers l'ouest, rabaissement de la travée est au niveau du rez-de-chaussée, voûtement de la nef. Le chevet, transformé à la fin du 15e siècle par de grandes baies gothiques, a conservé son ossature romane. A l'intérieur, l'abside a gardé quelques chapiteaux romans. L'église a conservé presque intacte sa charpente de la fin du 15e siècle.

History
Church of the 12th century, modified between the late 15th and 16th centuries with two vaulted aisles framing a nave with exposed roof structure. The bell tower, begun in 1506, saw its spire rebuilt twice. Transformations are carried out in the late 19th century by architect Jules Mondet: extension and displacement of the southern aisle towards the west, lowering of the eastern bay to ground level, vaulting of the nave. The chevet, transformed in the late 15th century by large Gothic openings, has retained its Romanesque framework. Inside, the apse has kept some Romanesque capitals. The church has retained almost intact its roof structure from the late 15th century.
