The 12th century village church was extensively renovated in the 16th century. The building has no transept. To the left of the nave, four arches* from the original sanctuary are still visible. The arches on the right date from 1528. Note also the second column on the right, a spiral column covered with shells. The main altar (1160), one of the few surviving examples from that period, has colonnaded Romanesque capitals.
