Historique
Ancienne vicairie, l'église remonte à l'époque carolingienne (pignon ouest et mur nord construits en maçonnerie de moëllons avec des arases de deux rangs de briques). Le pignon ouest est percé d'une porte à mouluration Renaissance. Une abside semi circulaire termine l'édifice. Le clocher se situe sur le choeur. Il présente un plan carré et est percé d'une baie plein cintre s'ouvrant au-dessus de l'abside. A l'intérieur, la nef a été divisée au 16e siècle. La croisée du transept forme choeur et abside. La nef, le choeur surmonté du clocher et l'abside appartiennent au 10e ou 11e siècle, et remaniés au 12e siècle. Les croisillons sont du 15e siècle. Chapiteaux sculptés (feuilles d'acanthe, crosses, denticules...).

History
Former vicarage, the church dates back to the Carolingian period (west gable and north wall built in rubble stone masonry with two courses of bricks). The west gable is pierced by a door with Renaissance moulding. A semi-circular apse terminates the building. The bell tower is located on the choir. It presents a square plan and is pierced by a round-arch opening opening above the apse. Interior, the nave was divided in the 16th century. The crossing of the transept forms the choir and apse. The nave, the choir surmounted by the bell tower and the apse belong to the 10th or 11th century, and were altered in the 12th century. The transepts are of the 15th century. Sculpted capitals (acanthus leaves, crosses, dentils...).
