The Ministère de la Culture's notice

L'église Saint-Pierre a été construite de 1881 à 1890 par l'architecte rennais Arthur Regnault. Il s'agit d'une église à plan centré sur coupole avec un clocher à bulbe. L'édifice est ample, lumineux et se remarque bien dans le paysage local avec son étonnant clocher. Cette église est le prototype du modèle d'églises romano-byzantines réalisées par Regnault.
