History

The church consists of a nave terminated by a flat chevet, and flanked by a south aisle. The building must date from the 12th century, as evidenced by the west portal with double voussure and the sculpted modillions of the south wall. A stone dressed bell tower was erected against the south wall in the 14th century. At the beginning of the 16th century, addition of a south aisle forming four chapels of which the last will be transformed into a sacristy at the end of the 17th century. The stained-glass windows of the choir and of the north wall of the nave are said to be due to a stained-glass painter named "master of Saint-Jacques".
