Remaniée aux 18e et 19e siècles, elle devient simple lieu de dévotion à un saint. La façade antérieure est couronnée par un fronton triangulaire. Une abside semi-circulaire forme chevet.

History
Probably built in the 13th century, the Romanesque chapel appears to have been abandoned from the 16th century. It is recorded as almost destroyed in 1559. Remodelled in the 18th and 19th centuries, it becomes a simple place of devotion to a saint. The front façade is crowned by a triangular pediment. A semi-circular apse forms the chevet.
