This church is the former chapel of the castle of the parting lords and probably dates from the late 13th century. The appointment of the chaplain who served this chapel belonged to the consuls and the collation to the bishop of Mende. The edifice consists of a nave of two bays, terminated by a pentagonal apse. A lateral chapel opens onto the first north bay of the nave.
