The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
L'église, primitivement construite vers le 11e siècle, a été agrandie à la fin du 12e, et remaniée au 14e siècle, époque à laquelle paraissent avoir été refaites les voûtes du transept. A l'intérieur, chapiteaux romans reproduisant tous des scènes se rapportant soit à l'histoire de saint Etienne martyre, soit à la vie du Christ ou des apôtres.

History
The church, originally built around the 11th century, was enlarged at the end of the 12th, and altered in the 14th century, when the vaults of the transept appear to have been remade. Inside, Romanesque capitals reproducing scenes relating either to the history of Saint Stephen the Martyr or to the life of Christ or the apostles.
