It was built in 1346 in the upper town and has been listed as a monument since 1920. It is in the radiant gothic style. The church contains furniture also classified as a historical monument:
a tombstone on the north wall (classified MH in 1913),
a wooden organ case from the 17th century, badly damaged during the First World War (classified as M.H. in 1913),
an 18th-century wooden altarpiece, located in the Chapel of the Dead in the south wall; a Virgin and Child is set up in the central niche and we also see a pelican opening its belly to feed its young (listed as M.H. in 1913),
an 18th century wooden pulpit (classified M.H. in 1936).
a marble and bronze sculpture of Ipoustéguy Death of Bishop John Neumann, created in 1976 and installed in 2001.

Located within the fortification built from the 10th century overlooking the town, this massive church was built in 1346 by the Lords of Apremont. After centuries of conflict, it remains today the only surviving monument in the upper town. Classified as a historical monument, this jewel of ogival architecture has an organ case and rich 18th century furniture, as well as two masterful sculptures by the contemporary artist Ipoustéguy: the "Death of Bishop Neumann" and the "Christ" .
This building is part of the European “Open Churches” network.
