The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Chapelle composée d'une nef unique terminée par une abside semi-circulaire voûtée en cul de four. La façade occidentale ainsi que la plus grande partie du mur latéral sud ont été reconstruits avec les mêmes dalles de granit. Le mur latéral nord et l'abside paraissent avoir subsisté dans leur état primitif.

History
Chapel composed of a single nave terminated by a semi-circular apse vaulted with a cul-de-four. The western façade and the greater part of the south lateral wall have been rebuilt with the same granite slabs. The north lateral wall and the apse appear to have survived in their original state.
