The church has a 12th century portal. The tower above the crossing, with a spire, dates from the 13th century. The Romanesque nave with clean lines has been renovated. Admire the beauty of the Gothic choir (early 15th century). The chapels around the central stained-glass window are exceptionally elegant with their refined columns. To the right of the central window, twelve small sculptures on the columns of the arcades represent the months of the year.

Located in the parish of Notre-Dame des Flots, the Saint-André de Port church was built at the end of the 19th century by the architect Moutier to replace the old 12th century sanctuary. It made it possible to accommodate the growing population of fishermen, too cramped in the nave of the old sanctuary. Five statues and a capital are classified as objects in the Historical Monuments
