The Ministère de la Culture's notice

La nef unique est couverte d'une charpente avec lattis enduit de plâtre simulant une voûte. Une travée carrée, voûtée sur une croisée de grosses ogives de section carrée, sous-jacente au clocher, relie la nef au choeur d'une courte travée voûtée en berceau et à l'abside à cinq pans voûtée en cul de four. Le clocher est divisé en deux étages par un bandeau soutenu par une petite arcature.

The single nave is covered with a timber roof with lath coated with plaster simulating a vault. A square bay, vaulted on a crossing of large ribs of square section, underlying the bell tower, links the nave to the choir of a short bay vaulted in barrel vault and to the five-sided apse vaulted in barrel. The bell tower is divided into two storeys by a band supported by small arcading.
