The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Eglise du 12e siècle. Particularité des voûtes des bas-côtés dont la pénétration longitudinale est prismatique et non cylindrique. Restes de fresques du 15e siècle dans le bras sud du transept. La façade ouest est formée d'un pignon coupé par des contreforts peu saillants. Le centre en est orné d'une rose polylobée du 13e siècle, moulurée. Au-dessous s'ouvre un portail de style bourguignon, placé hors oeuvre, qui semble avoir été ajouté après la construction de la façade. La voussure est formée de quatre rouleaux moulurés retombant sur des colonnettes à chapiteaux sculptés et d'une arcature moulurée, décorée d'ornements, qui repose sur des pilastres cannelés formant les extrémités du portail. Chapelles de l'abside reconstruites au début du 20e siècle.

Church of the 12th century. Particularity of the vaults of the aisles whose longitudinal penetration is prismatic and not cylindrical. Remains of 15th-century frescoes in the south arm of the transept. The western facade is formed by a gable cut by slightly projecting buttresses. Its centre is adorned with a polylobed rose of the 13th century, moulded. Below it opens a portal of Burgundian style, placed outside the work, which appears to have been added after the construction of the facade. The voussure is formed of four moulded rolls resting on colonnettes with sculpted capitals and a moulded arcading, decorated with ornaments, which rests on fluted pilasters forming the extremities of the portal. Chapels of the apse rebuilt in the early 20th century.
