    High Romanesque church, three naves and a flat chevet characterize the plan of the building
    Built very early in the Romanesque age, even in the Carolingian period, the church of Saint-Michel must not have been vaulted originally, because there were large windows to the south. The church also needed to be larger, as the choir reuses old stones. The vault was redone in the 18th century.
    The bell tower is a polygonal spire.
    A chapel discovered in 1984 has been restored. We find there
    • a stone holy water font listed as a Historic Monument since December 5, 1908. On each side are carved four figures:
    1. Prudence is represented by a draped woman carrying a tower surmounted by a cross,
    2. Justice by a woman crowned and armed with a sword at rest,
    3. Strength by an armed warrior slaying a lion,
    4. Temperance by a woman carrying a closed vase in her hands.
    It is a 15th century work restored in 1992 by Roger Colliou.
    • a 19th century ex-voto ship registered since November 10, 1980.
    • an altar, altarpiece in painted wood dating from the 18th century registered since February 27, 1984
    • finally, also inscribed since February 27, 1984, a painting representing the Crucifixion with Christ on the cross, the Virgin, Saint John and Saint Mary Magdalene. Dating from the 18th century, it was restored in 1983 by J.P.Clergeau.
