 "Originally dedicated to Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption, Saint-Etienne was originally the church of the Récollets convent, founded in the first half of the 17th century.
In the 18th century, his bedside collapses and is replaced by a straight wall against which was raised the altarpiece of the Assumption, still in place.
In the 19th century, the church becomes parish, the side chapels north of the nave are replaced by a single aisle and the bell tower is rebuilt above the facade. "

 "Dédiée à l'origine à Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption, Saint-Etienne était primitivement l'église du couvent des Récollets, fondé au Blanc dans la première moitié du 17e siècle.
Au 18e siècle, son chevet s'effondre et il est remplacé par un mur droit contre lequel fut élevé le retable de l'Assomption, toujours en place.
Au 19e siècle, l'église devient paroissiale, les chapelles latérales au nord de la nef sont remplacées par un unique bas-côté et le clocher est reconstruit au dessus de la façade. "
