A primitive building was consecrated by Pope Urban II in 1096. It was the priory church of the Benedictines. It became a parish church after the priory was sold in 1666. In 1697, the bell tower collapsed. In 1749, the church was in danger of collapse. The current church was rebuilt between 1758 and 1785. During the Revolution, the church became the "supreme temple." In 1855, the bell towers were added and the sacristy was rebuilt. The church, in the shape of a Latin cross, includes a nave. Its façade is adorned with four fluted pilasters with Ionic capitals supporting a triangular pediment. The stained-glass windows are from the 19th century. They depict scenes from the life of Saint Joseph, the Agony of Christ, scenes from the life of the Virgin, Pentecost, Saint Louis, Saint John the Baptist, and the Immaculate Conception. The prophets and kings of Israel can be seen: Abraham, Daniel, Abel, Noah, Moses, Elijah, Aaron, Melchizedek, sibyls, as well as a Virgin and Child, a Pietà, and the coat of arms of Abbot de Vivie.
