    The nave consists of a main nave and an aisle to the north. A bell tower is located to the south, as well as a seigneurial chapel. The choir consists of a straight bay and a semicircular apse.

    A first church was built in the late 11th and early 12th centuries by Étienne de Denonville. It was modified in the 16th century by Pierre de Hémard. A seigneurial chapel was built shortly after the death of Jacques de Hémard, Lord of Denonville, in 1559. On the old vault, in 1658, one could still see "the coat of arms and blazons of the Hémard family, which are six sable burels, around which are the hat and cords of a cardinal from the family." The vault was rebuilt by the Brisay family in 1722. A project to extend the church was considered in 1755 but never carried out. The north aisle was built in 1770.
