    The church, built in the 15th and 16th centuries, retains an interesting vaulted side porch, decorated with statues of the apostles. Above is a room which must have been used as a treasury. The west facade is decorated with a campanile with three bells. The base of the Calvary bears the date 1758, a year which certainly saw the rearrangement of the base, the shaft and the upper part of the work seeming older.

      The church (15th and 16th century) has an interesting south portal flanked by buttresses with niches. St. Lupus and St. Egidius are depicted on the pediment. The cemetery contains the grave of the composer Guy Ropartz (1864-1955). His family still lives in the old mansion.

        This church was built in the 15th and 16th centuries, on the site of a building dating from the 13th century. The founders are the lords of Noë-Verte and Kerjolis.
        The building, decorated with gargoyles representing various mythical animals, has a bell tower flanked by a turret.
        The south porch, built around 1550 on the site of the old Saint-Gilles chapel, houses the statues of the twelve apostles, with the evangelists in the four corners.
        The south chapel was added in 1767 and the choir was rebuilt in 1720, to plans by Aufray.
        On the plasterwork is a 16th century calvary. Christ on the cross is surrounded by Mary, her head bowed, her hands clasped, and Saint John, his eyes raised.
        The interior of the church contains a granite statue representing Saint-Loup. Bishop of Troyes in 426, Saint-Loup fought, with the help of Saint-Germain of Auxerre, against heresy in Great Britain.
        The visitor can also discover a 14th century Virgin as well as a painting entitled 'Crucifixion', a work by Georges Le Tourneur. This painting, dated 1634, represents the faces of the donors, Guillaume de Lanloup and Françoise du Perrier, praying at the foot of the Cross.
