The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Ancienne église paroissiale figurant, dès 1198, parmi les biens de Saint-Riom confirmés par le pape Innocent III. Supprimée à la Révolution, elle fut unie à Paimpol par ordonnance royale du 19 juin 1824. L'édifice, en forme de croix latine, présente la particularité archéologique d'avoir les angles du chevet et du transept arrondis. La charpente, depuis une restauration à une date indéterminée, est pyramidale. L'autel proviendrait de l'abbaye de Beauport.

Former parish church appearing, from 1198, among the goods of Saint-Riom confirmed by Pope Innocent III. Suppressed at the Revolution, it was united to Paimpol by royal ordinance of 19 June 1824. The building, in the form of a Latin cross, presents the archaeological particularity of having the angles of the chevet and transept rounded. The roof structure, since a restoration at an indeterminate date, is pyramidal. The altar would come from Beauport Abbey.
