History

The building comprises a single nave, an apse and a bell tower. The lower storey of the bell tower would date from the 12th century, the oldest part of the church, the spire and pyramidions having been built a hundred years later. The nave appears to belong to the end of the 15th century. On its western gable opens a richly decorated portal. Inside, it is vaulted by a coffered roof structure whose tie beams are decorated with sculptures. Several windows retain old stained glass. The 14th century apse was entirely modified around 1840 by a colonnade built inside to form an ambulatory. In the sacristy are traces of 15th century wall painting representing biblical scenes.
