The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Une église existait au 12e siècle, dont la travée formant choeur subsiste et dont la voûte a été reconstruite au 14e siècle, en même temps qu'étaient édifiés la nef et les chapelles. Il semble que le clocher et la façade ouest aient été édifiés au 18e siècle, ainsi que le laissent supposer les moulurations, l'absence de contreforts butant les angles de la première travée, la différence d'appareillage.

History
A church existed in the 12th century, of which the bay forming the choir subsists and of which the vault was rebuilt in the 14th century, at the same time as the nave and the chapels were being built. It appears that the bell tower and the west façade were built in the 18th century, as the mouldings suggest, the absence of buttresses supporting the angles of the first bay, the difference in stonework.
