The church, named Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption, has a bas-relief of Saint Hubert embedded in the left wall upon entering the choir. This sculpture dates from the end of the 16th century, the saint is shown hunting in a forest with his servants, a deer appears before him carrying a crucifix in its antlers. Saint Hubert dismounts from his horse and idolizes the image of the miraculous deer. And we see an angel fluttering in the air and holding a stole in his hands. The fact that this bas relief is in this church is explained by the fact that in the past, when cattle were bitten by an animal suspected of rabies, the villagers took these cattle to the church and had some prayers said for them. and then made them walk around the church three times in the hope of obtaining their healing.
