Capitals and archivolts of the portal bear witness to the influence of Sens cathedral. The small columns of the nave were geminate. The dome on ogives rests on columns jointed in half-cylinders. The roof structures are from the 15th century, following the fire of 1426. Mural paintings dating, for some, from the 16th century.
