The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Cette église du 12e siècle semble n'avoir eu qu'une nef unique à l'origine. Le transept a probablement été ajouté à la fin du 15e siècle ou au début du 16e siècle, et le bas-côté a été fait ou agrandi au 18e siècle. L'église a beaucoup souffert lors de la Grande Guerre.

This church of the 12th century seems to have had only a single nave originally. The transept was probably added at the end of the 15th century or at the beginning of the 16th century, and the aisle was made or enlarged in the 18th century. The church suffered greatly during the Great War.
