The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Eglise sans doute fondée au 12e siècle. Aucune modification n'y est apportée jusqu'à la fin du 18e siècle. La flèche du clocher fut détruite à la Révolution et reconstruite à l'identique par l'architecte Mallay, en 1850. Au sud de l'église, les bâtiments du prieuré ont presque entièrement été détruits après la Révolution. Il n'en reste que la salle capitulaire et ses annexes.

Church doubtless founded in the 12th century. No modification was made to it until the end of the 18th century. The bell tower spire was destroyed at the Revolution and rebuilt identically by the architect Mallay, in 1850. South of the church, the priory buildings were almost entirely destroyed after the Revolution. Only the chapter house and its annexes remain.
