The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Eglise reconstruite de 1927 à 1931 sur l'emplacement d'une église médiévale partiellement endommagée pendant la Première Guerre mondiale. L'édifice se rattache à l'esthétique romano-byzantine, adoptant un plan centré en croix grecque, l'espace médian étant couvert d'une coupole sur pendentifs, sommée d'un clocher. La structure est en béton armé, revêtue extérieurement en pierre de taille. Les verrières sont de Raphaël Lardeur et les peintures murales du rouennais Georges Lecomte.

History
Church rebuilt from 1927 to 1931 on the site of a medieval church partially damaged during the First World War. The edifice belongs to Romanesque-Byzantine aesthetics, adopting a centralised Greek-cross plan, the central space being covered by a dome on pendentives, surmounted by a bell tower. The structure is in reinforced concrete, externally clad in ashlar stone. The stained glass is by Raphaël Lardeur and the wall paintings by the Rouen artist Georges Lecomte.
