The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Edifice du 19e siècle, de style néo-gothique selon la volonté de son concepteur, l'abbé Combalot. Consacrée en 1864, l'église illustre le combat religieux livré, au début du 19e siècle, contre l'anticléricalisme hérité de la Révolution et de la pensée philosophique du siècle des Lumières.

Building of the 19th century, in neo-Gothic style according to the wishes of its designer, the abbé Combalot. Consecrated in 1864, the church illustrates the religious struggle waged in the early 19th century against anticlericalism inherited from the Revolution and the philosophical thought of the Age of Enlightenment.
