The tower of the church of Sainville, as well as the choir and the first three bays of the main nave, are in the Transitional Romanesque style from the end of the 12th century; the rest of the main nave and the side aisles appear to date only from the 15th century.

The bell tower contains three bells.

The largest, listed as a historic monument, is engraved with a quatrain:

"Founded smokes all new

I am the Patron of Sainville,

I bear the name of St. Peter.

In the year 1014. XLIX." (1549)

The second, from 1821, bears this inscription: "Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for he has visited and redeemed his people." Gospel of Saint Luke, chapter 1, verse 68.

The third is located above the other two.
