The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
L'édifice se compose de deux parties différentes. La première est une construction romane, sans doute débutée au 11e siècle et achevée progressivement au 12e siècle. La deuxième est constituée par le sanctuaire. Deux piliers passifs, de forme pentagonale, supportent une arcade en plein cintre. Sous l'arcade se trouvent trois autels correspondant à trois absides extérieures.

History
The building consists of two different parts. The first is a Romanesque construction, probably begun in the 11th century and completed gradually in the 12th century. The second is constituted by the sanctuary. Two recessive pillars of pentagonal form support a round arch arcade. Beneath the arcade are three altars corresponding to three exterior apses.
