The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Voûtes de la nef reconstituées dans la seconde moitié du 19e siècle. La troisième travée a été refaite au 19e siècle et voûtée en berceau. Avant la construction de la voûte de la nef au 19e siècle, la nef, plus haute que le choeur, était couverte d'un lambris. Choeur pentagonal couvert d'ogives filetées et évidées ; chapiteaux ornés des symboles des Evangélistes. Clocher-mur triangulaire ajouré de deux arcades en plein cintre, datant peut-être du 17e siècle. Portail tracé en tiers point entouré d'un boudin ininterrompu. Au-dessus de l'auvent, les pierres saillantes servirent peut-être de support à un mâchicoulis. Au chevet, modillons qui proviennent de l'église romane précédente.

History
Vaults of the nave reconstructed in the second half of the 19th century. The third bay was remade in the 19th century and barrel-vaulted. Before the construction of the vault of the nave in the 19th century, the nave, higher than the choir, was covered with a timber ceiling. Pentagonal choir covered with filleted and hollowed ribs; capitals decorated with the symbols of the Evangelists. Triangular porch tower pierced with two round arch arcades, dating perhaps from the 17th century. Portal traced in pointed arch surrounded by an uninterrupted moulding. Above the canopy, the projecting stones may have served as support for machicolations. At the chevet, modillions which come from the previous Romanesque church.
