History
The oldest part of the edifice is its bell tower, a square tower pierced by loopholes and lit, at its upper part, by geminate windows with round arch. This bell tower must date from the end of the 12th century. The rest of the church, comprising an oblong bay and the polygonal apse, was built in the 14th century.
