The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Edifice roman ayant subi quelques remaniements. La construction d'origine paraît remonter au 12e siècle, d'après l'appareillage du chevet. L'église est à nef unique, voûtée en berceau plein cintre et se termine par une abside polygonale voûtée en cul de four. Aucun élément sculpté. Au nord, sur la façade, une niche gothique abrite une statue mutilée, sans doute saint Ferréom. Sur la chapelle nord du choeur s'élève un clocher carré à flèche, avec deux étages d'ouvertures. Le portail s'ouvre sous une arcade à deux ressauts non moulurés. La tribune et la rosace qui l'éclairait ont été supprimées.

Romanesque building having undergone some reworking. The original construction appears to date back to the 12th century, according to the ashlar of the chevet. The church has a single nave, vaulted in a round barrel vault and ends with a polygonal apse vaulted in an oven vault. No sculpted elements. To the north, on the façade, a Gothic niche houses a mutilated statue, doubtless Saint Ferréom. On the north chapel of the choir rises a square bell tower with a spire, with two storeys of openings. The doorway opens under an arcade with two rough-worked offsets. The gallery and the oculus which lit it have been removed.
