The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Prieuré-cure de l'abbaye en 1580, la chapelle fut un lieu de pèlerinage où l'on se rendait des départements voisins pour accomplir des voeux. L'église fut détruite au cours des guerres de Religion. Seules subsistèrent du 16e siècle la tour du clocher et la flèche qui la surmontait, mais cette dernière fut détruite à la Révolution. Cette tour est un exemple assez rare de clocher en pierre de l'école toulousaine. La tour carrée formant porche est surmontée de deux étages octogonaux ajourés de baies géminées. L'église a été reconstruite au 17e siècle.

Priory-curacy of the abbey in 1580, the chapel was a place of pilgrimage where people came from neighbouring departments to fulfil vows. The church was destroyed during the Wars of Religion. Only from the 16th century survived the bell tower and the spire which surmounted it, but the latter was destroyed during the Revolution. This tower is a fairly rare example of a stone bell tower of the Toulousain school. The square tower forming a porch is surmounted by two storeys of octagonal form pierced with twin openings. The church was rebuilt in the 17th century.
