The plan of the chapel is rectangular with flat chevet. An entrance porch is set against the porch tower to the west. A sacristy leans against the north wall. The porch tower is built in ashlar with medium coursing in its lower part, hipped in its upper part. The narrow windows date from a reworking of the classical period or the 19th century. The porch built in rubble masonry in the 17th or 18th century, shelters access to the nave. The floor of this porch is made up of tombstones from the 18th century.
