The Ministère de la Culture's notice

L'église était chef-lieu d'un prieuré en même temps que le siège d'une paroisse. Le prieuré était à la nomination du monastère de Sauxillanges. L'édifice remonte au 12e siècle (nef, choeur et transept). Les bas-côtés ont sans doute été ajoutés au 16e siècle, de même que les chapelles. Les portes de l'église ont des pentures et serrures en fer forgé. Chapiteaux sculptés dans la nef.

The church was the chief seat of a priory at the same time as the seat of a parish. The priory was at the nomination of the monastery of Sauxillanges. The building dates back to the 12th century (nave, choir and transept). The aisles were probably added in the 16th century, as were the chapels. The doors of the church have wrought iron hinges and locks. Sculpted capitals in the nave.
