History
The Romanesque-style chapel was rebuilt at the beginning of the 16th century and provided with vaults. A deed of 1675 mentions that the chapel was rebuilt by two masons of Arreau.
It was sold during the Revolution as national property and is now owned by the municipality.

Architecture
The chapel is composed of a single nave extended by a semi-circular apse to the east.

Capped with a large slate roof and surmounted on the front by a steeple.
