The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Eglise construite au début du 12e siècle. Le portail d'entrée percé dans le mur sud de la nef est assez caractéristique et conserve des chapiteaux sculptés. La voûte de la nef a disparu, remplacée par un plafond en bois. Elle conserve des contreforts intérieurs flanqués de colonnettes engagées qui indiquent la structure primitive de cette partie de l'édifice.

History
Church built in the early 12th century. The entrance portal pierced in the south wall of the nave is quite characteristic and preserves sculpted capitals. The vault of the nave has disappeared, replaced by a wooden ceiling. It retains interior buttresses flanked by engaged small columns which indicate the primitive structure of this part of the building.
