Certaines parties de l'édifice seraient d'époques plus anciennes (porche du 11e siècle ; choeur du 14e). La seule partie remaniée serait le clocher-porche. La chapelle dite des Comtes de Chabannes, accolée au choeur, contient un fragment de vitrail du 15e siècle.

History
The church presents an interesting type of three-nave church from the 15th century of the Guéret region. Certain parts of the edifice would be from earlier periods (porch from the 11th century; choir from the 14th). The only reworked part would be the porch tower. The chapel called of the Counts of Chabannes, attached to the choir, contains a fragment of stained glass from the 15th century.
