The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Eglise romane à chevet plat ouvrant sur une nef unique lambrissée. Une chapelle seigneuriale voûtée d'ogives a été accolée à la nef au 15e siècle ; au 18e siècle, une chapelle a été adossée au mur sud du chevet, transformée ensuite en sacristie au 19e siècle. Le choeur est couvert par une voûte plein-cintre qui pourrait faire remonter les origines de l'église au 11e siècle. L'intérieur (vestiges de décor peint ou gravé, table de communion, plafond lambrissé, ...) est conservé.

Romanesque church with a flat chevet opening on to a single panelled nave. A vaulted seigneurial chapel with rib vaults was attached to the nave in the 15th century; in the 18th century, a chapel was set against the south wall of the chevet, later transformed into a sacristy in the 19th century. The choir is covered by a round-arch vault which could push back the origins of the church to the 11th century. The interior (vestiges of painted or incised decoration, communion table, panelled ceiling, ...) is preserved.
