[FR] Puis au XIe, on construisit le chevet, le transept et la tour et dans la seconde moitié du XIIe, on a renouvelé la nef et les bas-côtés. Le clocher octogonal s'élevant sur une souche carrée présente un aspect auvergnat. Il est surmonté d'une flèche de charpente formée de trois troncs de pyramide superposés et couverte de bardeaux.
