The church is located on a rocky outcrop where was also the old castle, it dominates the sources of the Touvre to the south. It dates from the 12th century and has four capitals listed as historic monuments in the nave.

The western part dates from the middle of the 12th century and the choir from the end of the same century. Half-ruined in 1631, the church was restored shortly afterwards, then in 1755. The northwest corner of the nave was erected in the 17th century. In 1845, it received brick vaults. A steeple overflowing in place of the one that existed on the false square.

After the Blessed Virgin Mary, "Sainte MARIE MADELEINE" is the woman most frequently mentioned in the writings of the New Testament. Originally called "Mary of Magdala" after her place of origin on the Sea of Galilee, over time the name "Mary Magdalene" has been formed. According to the biblical accounts, she is one of the women and men who followed Jesus of Nazareth. According to the testimony of the evangelists, Mary Magdalene is also one of the three women who, after the crucifixion and burial of Jesus Christ, wanted to anoint the body on Easter morning after the Sabbath rest, and the very first person who ever met the Risen Christ. In theology, she is therefore also known as the "Apostle of the Apostles". The feast day of Sainte Marie-Madeleine in the calendar of saints is July 22nd.
