The parish church of Saint-Pellerin, whose oriented plan is reduced to a simple rectangle, only retains a few vestiges of the Romanesque period: part of the southern wall, itself repaired several times. The building, which was struck by lightning, was restored in 1821 with the reconstruction of a beautiful molded frame with tie beams. On the north side a chapel opens onto the nave through two arcades which rest on cylindrical columns. The flat bedside is pierced by a large window with three lancets topped with flamboyant tracery. The western facade is dominated by a triangular gable whose slopes are decorated with kale and dogs sitting on piles of loads, the Renaissance style portal is decorated with a large shell surmounted by a sculpted base of a angel holding a shield. On the north and south sides, thick glaciated buttresses support the gutter walls. The Safeguarding of French Art granted aid of 25,000 F in 1993 to restore the flat tile roof and the slate bell tower.
