Au 17e siècle, l'église est flanquée au sud d'une chapelle abritant les tombeaux des ducs d'Epernon, sous laquelle se trouve une crypte. La façade ouest et le clocher sont l'oeuvre de l'architecte Labbé, vers 1865. Nef unique de cinq travées. Une clôture de pierre et marbres polychromes sépare la chapelle funéraire de la nef. La charpente de la nef est d'origine.

Collegiate church founded in 1490 by Gaston III of Foix Candale, and rebuilt between 1541 and 1544. In the 17th century, the church is flanked to the south by a chapel housing the tombs of the Dukes of Épernon, beneath which is found a crypt. The west façade and the bell tower are the work of architect Labbé, around 1865. Single nave of five bays. A partition of stone and polychrome marble separates the funerary chapel from the nave. The roof structure of the nave is original.
