    The church dates from the early 12th century.

    It is a church enclosed within its cemetery. It retains the typical features of small rural churches of the 12th century. It has preserved its apse, its gable-roofed bell tower, its small Romanesque windows, its arcades with a barrel-vaulted transept, and the exposed timbers of its nave.

    In addition to 14th-century wall paintings, discovered by chance in 1888 by workers whitewashing the interior of the sanctuary, the building houses an 18th-century tuffeau altarpiece, a 15th-century baptismal font, and a 16th-century terracotta statue of the Virgin.
