Church composed of a nave flanked by two aisles covered with lean-to roofs and a choir rib vaulted at the crossing accompanied by two lateral chapels rib vaulted likewise. The building, which is preceded to the west by a Romanesque portal, dates from the 12th century, but underwent later restorations. A bell tower pierced with Gothic openings rises above the choir.
