The Ministère de la Culture's notice

L'église est un petit édifice construit au 14ème siècle et a connu de multiples modifications dont celles réalisées aux 19ème et 20ème siècles. Il s'agit d'un petit édifice orienté constitué d'un simple vaisseau, d'un chevet plat et de deux chapelles jouxtant le choeur. Un porche précède l'entrée et la nef, de plan très allongé, est dominée par un clocher à flèche octogonale. Les baies sont toutes ornées de vitraux contemporains et l'intérieur est d'une grande simplicité. Des sondages effectués en 2003 puis la dépose du retable ont mis au jour des vestiges de grande qualité de décors peints sur enduits entre le 14ème et le 18ème siècles.

The church is a small building constructed in the 14th century and has undergone multiple modifications including those made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is a small oriented building consisting of a simple nave, a flat chevet and two chapels adjoining the choir. A porch precedes the entrance and the nave, of very elongated plan, is dominated by a bell tower with an octagonal spire. The openings are all ornamented with contemporary stained glass and the interior is of great simplicity. Surveys carried out in 2003 and subsequently the removal of the retable revealed vestiges of high quality of decorated render between the 14th and 18th centuries.
