The church consists of a nave crowned by a boarded round arch vault, and an aisle, separated by five pilasters supporting arches. The choir terminates with a semi-circular apse. The quadrangular bell tower is attached to the western gable of the nave. The tower is buttressed with stepped buttresses, the north-west being occupied by the staircase covered with an irregular polygonal turret. The interior arrangement comprises traces of 19th century intervention.
