The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Cet édifice, généralement reconnu comme gothique tardif du 15e siècle, reconstruit au 16e siècle, pose en réalité de nombreuses questions qui restent sans réponse. A l'analyse, il apparaît très difficile d'établir l'historique du bâtiment. Ses qualités sont cependant indéniables au niveau du choeur voûté d'ogives, à la base de la puissante tour-clocher. Porte à mâchicoulis.

History
This building, generally recognized as late Gothic of the 15th century, rebuilt in the 16th century, actually raises many questions which remain unanswered. On analysis, it appears very difficult to establish the history of the building. Its qualities are however undeniable at the level of the choir vaulted with ribs, at the base of the powerful bell tower. Door with machicolations.
