History
The church consists of a nave, a transept and a polygonal choir. The nave, originally vaulted, was covered with a ceiling in the 19th century. At the base of the nave there is a vast gallery of the 15th century resting on vaults of that period. The 12th-century transept rests on four round-arch arcades that support a vault remade in the 16th century. The pentagonal choir is covered with a wooden vault with pendentive, dated 1562. Romanesque capitals.
