The Ministère de la Culture's notice

L'abside principale et les faces des piles de la croisée et de la nef sont les vestiges romans de cette église. Elle semble n'avoir pas eu, à l'origine, de bas-côtés. La crête primitive et la couverture en lozes de l'abside sont conservées.

The main apse and the faces of the piers of the crossing and the nave are the Romanesque vestiges of this church. It appears not to have had, originally, aisles. The primitive roof-line and the slate covering of the apse are preserved.
