The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Vaste édifice datant de 1545, retouchée en 1781 (clocher) , et restauré en 1883. Du côté nord subsiste une porte gothique avec l'accolade habituelle, et du côté sud un linteau avec encadrement de porte. Les fenêtres sont ogivales mais leurs meneaux ont disparu. La porte sud est abritée par un porche moderne, ouverture rectangulaire dont le linteau est soulagé par des corbelets. Le linteau sculpté représente le Christ en croix entre Saint-Jean et la Vierge. Aux deux extrémités se trouve un entrelac autour d'un cercle. De chaque côté, colonne avec chapiteau.

Vast edifice dating from 1545, retouched in 1781 (bell tower), and restored in 1883. On the north side remains a Gothic door with the customary accolade, and on the south side a lintel with door framing. The windows are pointed but their mullions have disappeared. The south door is sheltered by a modern porch, rectangular opening whose lintel is relieved by corbels. The sculpted lintel represents Christ on the cross between Saint John and the Virgin. At both ends is found interlacing around a circle. On each side, column with capital.
