The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Eglise gothique du 13e siècle, époque à laquelle se rattachent le choeur, l'avant choeur, une chapelle formant bras de transept, le mur latéral sud avec la partie basse du clocher. La façade est de construction plus ancienne. Vers le 18e siècle, l'édifice a subi une importante transformation. Le mur latéral nord a été largement ouvert et une arcade surbaissée a mis en communication ce qui restait de la nef ancienne avec un nouveau bas-côté. Ce bas-côté et la nef sont recouverts d'une voûte en berceau très surbaissé.

Gothic church of the 13th century, period to which are attributed the choir, the antechoir, a chapel forming a transept arm, the south side wall with the lower part of the bell tower. The façade is of older construction. Towards the 18th century, the building underwent major transformation. The north side wall was largely opened and a flattened arch put into communication what remained of the old nave with a new aisle. This aisle and the nave are covered with a very flattened barrel vault.
