Description

Building restored at the beginning of the 20th century. The lower part of the west facade is in a romance style, to the headband supported by consoles decorated with heads of characters and animals. The portal seems to have been modified in the 13th century. A small elongated porch is covered with a cradle vault. The church ends with three parallel apses, all vaulted in cradle, the central apse being higher and wider than those that accompany it. Two chapels with vaults in transverse cradle are integrated into the north and southern walls of the nave, thus creating a semblance of transept.
