The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Edifice roman du 12e siècle à trois nefs séparées par de lourds piliers, sans colonnes engagées, qui reçoivent la retombée des voûtes sur des impostes au chanfrein. La nef centrale est voûtée en berceau, les collatéraux en quart de cercle. Vers le milieu du 12e siècle, une partie du choeur et du sanctuaire a été relevée, et les arcs en tiers point qui portent le clocher ont été construits. Les absides ont été surélevées récemment, comme en témoignent les traces des anciens modillons.

History
Romanesque building of the 12th century with three naves separated by heavy pillars, without engaged columns, which receive the springing of the vaults on chamfered imposts. The central nave is vaulted in barrel vault, the collaterals in quarter-circle. Around the middle of the 12th century, a part of the choir and sanctuary was rebuilt, and the pointed arches which carry the bell tower were constructed. The apses were raised recently, as evidenced by the traces of the former modillions.
