The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
L'église comporte deux nefs juxtaposées, l'une romane (12e siècle) , l'autre gothique (16e siècle). Un tremblement de terre en 1704 a entraîné la chute du clocher, remplacé par un dôme en bois, puis reconstruit en 1873.

History
The church comprises two juxtaposed naves, one Romanesque (12th century), the other Gothic (16th century). An earthquake in 1704 led to the fall of the bell tower, replaced by a wooden dome, then rebuilt in 1873.
