Really very little information on this church, even the town hall does not have any. I know the church was present in the 17th century because I have baptismal, marriage and burial records of some of my ancestors in this church. "Rustic-style church with pre-Romanesque elements and 18th century bell tower. Contains the reliquary bust of Saint-Théobald (one of the two patron saints of Dorat), carried in procession during the Septennial Ostensions in Dorat."

Vraiment très peu d'information sur cette église, même la mairie n'en possède pas. Je sais que l'église était présente au 17ème siècle car j'ai des actes de baptêmes, mariages et sépultures de certains de mes ancêtres dans cette église.
