The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Il s'agit d'un édifice dont les différents éléments architecturaux indiquent une construction allant du 12ème siècle jusqu'au 16ème siècle. L'ensemble que constituent son choeur et son transept est une réalisation raffinée qui caractérise l'élan de création et de renouveau de l'architecture au tournant du 12ème et du 13ème siècles. Si l'édifice, pour ses parties occidentales, a une allure plutôt massive, l'intérieur est dominé par une impression d'élancement. Bien que dépouillée de son mobilier pendant la Révolution Française, on notera la présence de deux dalles funéraires du début du 16ème siècle et de quelques verrières sur la façade occidentale et dans le transept.

This is a building whose different architectural elements indicate construction spanning from the 12th century to the 16th century. The ensemble formed by its chevet and its transept is a refined achievement which characterizes the impulse of creation and renewal in architecture at the turn of the 12th and 13th centuries. Although the building, for its western parts, has rather a massive appearance, the interior is dominated by an impression of soaring. Although stripped of its furnishings during the French Revolution, one will note the presence of two funerary slabs from the beginning of the 16th century and a few stained-glass windows on the western façade and in the transept.
