EN: The church Saint-Veran with its cemetery stands on a hill surrounded by vineyards east of the village.
The church has a rectangular nave with a gabled roof and three arched windows on the south side. The bell tower with the main entrance is in the west of the nave and has a curved pyramid roof. The upper part of the tower has some corner pilaster strips.
The history of the church dates back to the Middle Ages, but there is very little documented. What we know is that the church was rebuilt in 1701-02.
