The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Ancienne église paroissiale, désaffectée en 1774. C'est un petit édifice composé d'une nef, d'une travée de choeur surmontée d'un clocher, et d'une abside. Sur la façade fait saillie un avant-corps percé d'une porte qui a remplacé la porte primitive. Un enfeu en arc brisé a été aménagé au 15e siècle. La nef est reliée à une travée de choeur par une arcade dont l'intrados conserve quelques traces de peintures qui représentaient le calendrier. Cette travée est surmontée du clocher, tour carrée massive, amortie par une courte flèche de pierre. L'abside, semi circulaire, est voûtée en cul de four.

History
Former parish church, abandoned in 1774. It is a small building composed of a nave, a bay of choir surmounted by a bell tower, and an apse. On the façade projects a pavilion pierced by a door which replaced the original door. A broken arch memorial recess was fitted out in the 15th century. The nave is connected to a bay of choir by an arch whose intrados retains some traces of paintings representing the calendar. This bay is surmounted by the bell tower, a massive square tower, terminated by a short stone spire. The apse, semi-circular, is vaulted with a cul-de-four.
