The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Eglise en partie du 12e siècle, avec nef surmontée d'une voûte moderne en plâtre, un clocher du 17e siècle ou du 18e, une chapelle latérale nord très remaniée. L'époque de sa fondation remonte à la période romane : murs épais appuyés de contreforts, percés de fenêtres en plein cintre, chevet du sanctuaire, toiture de la voûte du choeur en schiste du pays, sans charpente. Plan simple à nef centrale avec chapelles accolées. La voûte de la nef n'existe plus, certainement écroulée.

History
Church partly from the 12th century, with nave surmounted by a modern plaster vault, a bell tower from the 17th or 18th century, a much altered north lateral chapel. The period of its foundation goes back to the Romanesque period: thick walls supported by buttresses, pierced by round-arch windows, choir apse, roofing of the choir vault in local slate, without roof structure. Simple plan with central nave and adjoined chapels. The vault of the nave no longer exists, certainly collapsed.
