Tips
The church (Église) Saint-Joseph was built in 1875 in the neo-Gothic style in the shape of a Latin cross with two aisles. Due to the narrow building site, the two aisles form a false transept.
The bell tower was built with an openwork bell chamber and a hexagonal arrowhead. The three church bells date from 1897. The seven-bay nave has been covered with a blue-paneled vault with decorated crossbeams since 1888. The aisles are separated from the nave by pointed arches.translated by
