This church is one of the churches that saw the birth of my ancestors in the years 1600 to 1800.
The current church, built in the Romanesque period, consists of a single nave, lit on the south side with a bay and two oculi, and a chevet with a square plan. The west facade is surmounted, the west facade is surmounted since the twelfth century a steeple-wall tower with three levels ending in a triangular pinion.
The building is often closed, you have to get the key from a neighbor who is unfortunately not always present.
