The village of Les Plats was an ancient parish. The chapel is named church in bulls of 1105, 1115 and 1318. Small rural rectangular sanctuary, built in the 12th century. The western façade presents a porch tower pierced by two round-arch openings. The flat chevet is supported by a wide buttress at its centre. Inside, historiated capitals in the bay of the choir which received the pendentives of a dome now disappeared and replaced by a ceiling.
