Eglise de la fin du 15e ou du début du 16e siècle. La chapelle des Fonts, supportant le clocher, est le seul vestige de l'église disparue et remonte au 12e siècle. La charpente à chevrons portant ferme date du 15e siècle. Le gros oeuvre a été édifié dans le style gothique, au début du 16e siècle. Le décor de la façade ouest a été réalisé à la Renaissance. Au 17e siècle, le grand retable (1646) et la chapelle funéraire de la famille Bastonneau complètent l'ensemble. Une grille en fer forgé du 18e siècle sépare le choeur de la nef. Clocher reconstruit en 1758.

Church from the late 15th or early 16th century. The Font chapel, supporting the bell tower, is the only vestige of the vanished church and dates back to the 12th century. The roof structure with chevrons carrying the tie-beam dates from the 15th century. The main structure was built in Gothic style in the early 16th century. The decoration of the west façade was carried out in the Renaissance. In the 17th century, the large retable (1646) and the funeral chapel of the Bastonneau family complete the ensemble. An 18th century wrought iron grille separates the choir from the nave. Bell tower rebuilt in 1758.
