History
Building of the 15th century which certainly stands on the site of a former Gallo-Roman temple. Decoration of 15th-century wall paintings, completed in 1981 for the filming of the film "The Return of Martin Guerre"; this decoration is inspired by the paintings of the Romanesque church of Sainte-Suzanne.
