Church of the late Gothic period, comprising a main nave, a single aisle and presenting traces of numerous modifications and repairs. The thrust of the vaults is maintained, within, by buttresses whose projection forms a series of lateral chapels. Vaults with liernes and star-shaped ribs. The apse is pierced with windows with mullions and tracery. To the right of the apse rises a bell tower. The western façade is pierced with three identical portals only one of which is contemporary with the church, the two others having been remade in 1828, as was the upper part.
