Of the Romanesque church founded in 1015 by Hildegarde, Countess of Poitou, only the bell tower and the narthex subsist. In 1346, the building is ruined by the English troops of lord Derby, and restored in the second half of the 15th century (1466). The 12th-century façade was completely altered in its lower part in the 15th century.
