History

Church with a Latin cross plan with a flat chevet, whose Romanesque nave comprises two bays with barrel vaults on ribs. The choir was revaulted in the 16th century. The first bay of the nave is topped by a bell tower of the 19th century. The second bay of the nave has, to the north, the addition of a 17th-century chapel and, to the south, a 19th-century chapel. The wall bell tower of 1662 was transformed into a square bell tower. The east door is in the style of 16th-century reconstruction. The nave has a barrel vault on ribs. Only the Renaissance decoration of the choir remains. An ossuary was uncovered beneath the north chapel, attesting to the antiquity of the place occupied previously to the 12th century.
