The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Edifice en forme de croix latine dont la porte classique possède un fronton. Les fenêtres du transept conservent les meneaux de pierre. Le maître autel et les poutres sont sculptés, ainsi que quelques pierres aux angles des sablières. Dans l'aile sud se trouve la tombe d'un seigneur du Dresnay. La partie la plus intéressante de la chapelle est sa façade occidentale, surmontée d'un clocher-mur édifié en 1588.

Building in the form of a Latin cross whose classical door possesses a pediment. The windows of the transept preserve the stone mullions. The high altar and the beams are sculptured, as are some stones at the angles of the wall plates. In the south wing is found the tomb of a lord of Dresnay. The most interesting part of the chapel is its west façade, surmounted by a bell tower built in 1588.
