The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Dans son ensemble, l'église est romane. Voûtes en berceau dans la nef, en cul-de-four dans l'abside. Un saut-de-loup défend l'abside contre les infiltrations d'eau des terrains supérieurs. Sur le rez-de-chaussée du clocher subsistent des amorces d'une voûte à nervures.

History
Overall, the church is Romanesque. Barrel vaults in the nave, cul-de-four vault in the apse. A dry moat defends the apse against water seepage from the upper ground. On the ground floor of the bell tower remain the beginnings of a ribbed vault.
