History
The church comprises two naves joined with flat chevets. It results from several campaigns of work situated at the end of the 12th century, during the second half of the 13th century, in the 14th and 19th centuries and, finally, during the 20th century. A defensive system composed of a bell tower and a parapet protecting a wall walk is constructed from the 14th century onwards. The church contains quality elements including a reliquary of Sainte-Tarcisse in gilded wood.
