It is the parish church, built between 1822 and 1828.

Its name is the Assumption, or Sainte-Marie (Santa Maria Assunta in Corsica).

The church has flat pilasters on its facade and is dominated by an undulating pediment. The interior is baroque style with trompe-l'oeil paintings.

Damaged in 1835 during violent storms, the expansion is planned as well as the addition of a high altar.

In 1845, the interior arrangements had still not been made.

On the other hand, in 1847-48, the quadrangular bell tower with its oculus lantern was built, the bells being made in 1887 by Ferdinand Farnier. The bell tower will be classified in 1989.

In the meantime, between 1970 and 1975, the painted decoration was carried out in the nave, the ornamentation of the choir being carried out from 1992 to 1997 by two Russian painters, Sokolova and Tchernoritski.
