The apse, the transept crossing and the two chapels forming the transept are from the end of the 15th century. The south sacristy dates from the 16th century. To the Romanesque portal was added, in the 16th century, an interior frame decorated with fine Renaissance rinceaux. Bell tower with arcaded storeys.
