The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Ancienne propriété de l'abbaye de Villeloin au 12e siècle. La façade a été refaite au 12e siècle, et est percée d'une porte en plein cintre à rouleaux moulurés de tores retombant sur les chapiteaux garnis de crochets. Elle conserve une maçonnerie en petit appareil, vestige de l'église du 10e siècle. La nef était autrefois voûtée en charpente. Le grand choeur carré date de la fin du 12e ou du début du 13e siècle. La colonnette de l'angle sud-est conserve son chapiteau très archaïque, vestige de l'église primitive.

History
Former property of the abbey of Villeloin in the 12th century. The façade was remade in the 12th century, and is pierced by a round arch doorway with moulded rolls of toruses falling back on capitals furnished with crockets. It retains small dressed stone masonry, a vestige of the 10th-century church. The nave was formerly covered with a timber roof structure. The large square choir dates from the end of the 12th or beginning of the 13th century. The small column at the south-east corner retains its very archaic capital, a vestige of the original church.
