Edifice roman du 12e siècle (maçonneries extérieures, portail, profil des contreforts, toit en bâtière de la tour-clocher). Au 15e siècle, des travaux ont modifié l'aspect intérieur de l'église : choeur voûté de deux travées d'ogives, modifications de certaines baies, tour-clocher couverte d'un voûtement d'ogives, etc. Les modifications des siècles suivants touchent surtout le décor mobilier : autel latéral nord en pierre au 17e siècle, mobilier du 19e siècle.

Romanesque building of the 12th century (exterior masonry, portal, profile of buttresses, pitched roof of the bell tower). In the 15th century, work modified the interior aspect of the church: choir vaulted with two bays of rib vaults, modifications to certain openings, bell tower covered with rib vaulting, etc. Modifications in the following centuries mainly affected moveable decoration: north lateral stone altar in the 17th century, 19th-century furnishings.
