Three periods marked the construction of the church: the 12th century for the main nave, the 15th century for the side naves and the pulpit, the 17th century for the tower that supports the bell tower.
The Romanesque period.
The main nave was built in grison (very hard rock made up of small flints agglomerated using iron oxide). The main door is formed of three arches without any decoration because grison is not suitable for sculpture.
The Gothic period.
These are the side naves and the pulpit. Their roofs are formed of four gables. The latter are separated by gutters that end with sculpted gargoyles.
The Renaissance period.
The bell tower dates from the middle of the 17th century. The date 1647 can be read on the lintel of the door at the bottom of the bell tower. It is a tower that supports the bell tower. The interior of the tower is lit by a very simple rose window on the first floor.
This tower was originally topped by a very slender spire, one of the tallest in the region, which was destroyed in February 1802 by a fire caused by lightning. Due to lack of sufficient resources, the spire was not rebuilt in the same style: square at the base, it ends with an octagonal spire.
The interior decoration.
At the end of the 19th century, the walls of the sanctuary were covered with neo-Byzantine style paintings by Doctor Paul Durand. However, this learned archaeologist died before finishing his work and it was Abbot Henault who completed it.
Various frescoes are visible. One of them represents doves, symbols of the Christian soul in contemplation in front of bunches of grapes alternating with ears of wheat, symbols of the Eucharist.
In the window embrasures, round medallions contain the names of the virtues with characteristic emblems.
There are many statues. Some are made of wood, others of plaster or stucco. They represent the Virgin Mary, Saint Joseph and other Saints (Saint Eloi, Saint Benedict, Saint John the Baptist, Saint Lubin...).
There are also many paintings. Some were copied in Rome from Italian masters. They represent the Virgin Mary and the Holy Family, the Holy Face.
Also in this church is a remarkable painted wooden crucifix fixed to the punch of the frame at the entrance to the choir.
