Church composed of a nave and a southern aisle built in the 16th century, a transept without absidioles, a choir and a semicircular apse of the 13th century. The northern bay is pierced by two paired doors in basket-arch form, flanked by pilasters with composite capitals supporting an entablature. These three niches have their termination ornamented with a shell. They are flanked by pilasters supporting a triangular pediment. The north wall of the nave belongs to the 13th century. Nave and aisles were restored in the 19th century. The northern transept arm is housed under the bell tower. The latter is a large square tower, buttressed by supports near the angles, and accompanied on the east by a stair housed in a turret crowned by a storey and a spire.
