The Ministère de la Culture's notice

L'église existait déjà au 11e siècle. De l'époque romane datent la travée précédant la nef et le clocher. Le choeur, deux travées de la nef, collatéraux et la tourelle d'escalier datent du 15e siècle. Il semble que le fronton de la façade occidentale ait été remanié.

The church already existed in the 11th century. From the Romanesque period date the bay preceding the nave and the bell tower. The choir, two bays of the nave, aisles and the stair turret date from the 15th century. It appears that the gable of the western façade was remodeled.
