The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Eglise à nef unique avec transept, abside et absidiole. La partie la plus ancienne, l'abside polygonale voûtée cul-de-four, remonte au 12e siècle. A l'extérieur, à chaque angle, un contrefort-colonne supporte la retombée d'un arc en tiers-point. L'arc de la face centrale est polylobé. Modillons sculptés. Le reste de l'église a subi de grosses modifications : les transepts sont modernes, ainsi que la nef. Des chapelles latérales ont été ajoutées, côté nord, au 16e siècle. Le clocher, dans le soubassement duquel est ménagé un porche à voussures, est du 16e siècle dans sa partie inférieure.

History
Church with single nave with transept, apse and absidiole. The oldest part, the polygonal apse vaulted en cul-de-four, dates back to the 12th century. On the exterior, at each corner, a buttress-column supports the springing of a pointed arch. The arch of the central face is polylobed. Sculpted modillons. The rest of the church underwent major modifications: the transepts are modern, as is the nave. Lateral chapels were added, on the north side, in the 16th century. The bell tower, in the base of which is provided a porch with coffering, is from the 16th century in its lower part.
