The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Chapelle rurale composée d'une nef unique, terminée par un chevet plat. Clocher-mur d'une seule arcade. La porte s'ouvre au sud, comme c'est presque toujours le cas dans l'architecture religieuse populaire du Gers. La porte est précédée d'un emban gascon, clos d'un mur montant jusqu'au toit à l'ouest, et d'un mur bas au sud. C'est là que se terminaient les réunions de la communauté paroissiale.

History
Rural chapel composed of a single nave, terminated by a flat chevet. Clocher-mur with a single arcade. The door opens to the south, as is almost always the case in popular religious architecture in Gers. The door is preceded by a Gascon emban, enclosed by a wall rising to the roof on the west, and a low wall to the south. This is where the meetings of the parish community ended.
