The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Construite à partir de 1729, l'église est caractéristique d'un type d'architecture des églises comtoises du 18e siècle. Le clocher hors oeuvre en façade, le plan en croix latine, la nef au vaisseau unique voûté d'arêtes, le transept à croisée couverte d'une coupole octogonale sur pendentifs, en font un exemple de ce type de construction. L'édifice a sans doute été agrandi vers 1756. L'église renferme un mobilier complet du 18e siècle.

History
Built from 1729, the church is characteristic of a type of architecture of Comtois churches of the 18th century. The free-standing bell tower on the façade, the Latin cross plan, the nave with a single barrel vault, the transept with a crossing covered by an octagonal cupola on pendentives, make it an example of this type of construction. The building was no doubt enlarged around 1756. The church contains a complete set of furnishings from the 18th century.
