Historique
Edifice roman de la fin du 11e début 12e siècle, comprenant une nef de quatre travées voûtée en berceau, terminée par une abside semi circulaire. De gros piliers rectangulaires couronnés d'un imposte séparent la nef de ses bas-côtés voûtés en quart de cercle, selon le mode auvergnat. La nef a dû être voûtés postérieurement, comme l'indique l'arc triomphal en tiers-point. Sur le choeur s'élève un clocher carré ajouré d'une baie jumelée sur chacune de ses faces.
