Sur la façade nord-ouest se trouve le clocher-pignon dont les niveaux sont délimités par d'étroits bandeaux. Elle est percée d'un portail "limousin" aux voussures moulurées légèrement brisées.

Rural church built in 1409, composed of a single nave of three bays delimited by transverse ribs and a choir with flat chevet. A chapel opens to the north-east in the first bay; two others form a small transept to the north and south in the third bay. The whole is vaulted with rib vaults. On the north-west facade is found the porch tower, the levels of which are delimited by narrow bands. It is pierced by a "Limousin" portal with slightly pointed moulded coffering. The bell tower is pierced by two round-arch arcades sheltering the bells.
