The stone church was begun in 1044. The keep which flanks the church to the north dates from the 14th century. The west façade opens onto a Romanesque portal. The church possesses wooden sculptured furnishings of the 17th century as well as stalls, a pulpit and a confessional from Bucilly abbey of the Premonstratensians. There is also a painted coffered wooden ceiling financed in 1685 by Mademoiselle de Guise, restored in 1840 by Moine-Letellier. The church was rebuilt more than three-quarters in the 19th century.
