The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Paroisse citée dès 1291. Lors de la construction de la nouvelle église paroissiale après 1850, l'ancienne église, en mauvais état, est presque totalement détruite : on ne conserve que le choeur, fermé et utilisé comme chapelle de cimetière. Choeur médiéval dont on a remplacé la voûte sur croisée d'ogives par un plafond en bois avant le 18e siècle.

Parish cited from 1291. During the construction of the new parish church after 1850, the old church, in poor condition, was almost completely destroyed: only the choir was retained, closed and used as a cemetery chapel. Medieval choir whose rib vault was replaced by a wooden ceiling before the 18th century.
