The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Edifice composé d'une nef rectangulaire terminée par deux pignons dont celui de l'entrée porte un clocher mur. Au sud, une chapelle privative carrée, séparée par une double arcade, forme bras de transept. Un petit clocheton ajouré couronne le pignon occidental. La chapelle a sans doute souffert de la guerre de succession du duché, ayant été presque entièrement reconstruite dans la seconde moitié du 15e siècle. Seuls quelques pans de murs paraissent avoir été conservés de l'édifice du 14e siècle. Désaffectée, mais très visitée.

History
Building composed of a rectangular nave terminated by two gables of which the entrance-side one bears a wall-mounted bell tower. To the south, a square private chapel, separated by a double arcade, forms a transept arm. A small openwork bell turret crowns the west gable. The chapel doubtless suffered from the war of succession of the duchy, having been almost entirely rebuilt in the second half of the 15th century. Only a few stretches of walls appear to have been preserved from the 14th-century building. Deconsecrated, but very much visited.
