The Sainte-Cécile parish church is one of the oldest buildings in the region. It consists of a single nave, a narrow bay and a wider semi-circular apse, pierced with two windows, to the east and west, with stained glass windows, signed M. Bouillot. Very pretty !

Saint CECILE, to whom this church in the town of the same name was dedicated, is primarily responsible for good sound in the large circle of saints - if one can put it so casually here - because she is the patron saint of church music. Many religious choirs are named after her. The dates of her life from the corresponding saint's legend are not historically confirmed, but she is said to be a martyr from the beginning of the third century. The patron saint's feast day, i.e. her memorial day in the calendar of saints, is on November 22nd in all major Christian denominations.
