This church was originally meant to be a simple chapel of the commandery, founded in the 12th century by the Templars, forming one side of the courtyard which groups the buildings. The monumental porch of the 15th century is flanked by two brick towers. The nave ends in a semi-circular apse covered with an oven vault.
