Historique
Eglise du 12e siècle n'ayant subi aucune altération, hormis la sacristie plaquée contre l'abside. Un petit clocher pignon à trois baies s'élève au-dessus de l'arc qui renforce la façade occidentale. La nef est voûtée en berceau, l'abside en cul de four. La façade ouest s'ouvre par un porche dont l'archivolte plein cintre repose sur des colonnettes à chapiteaux.
