Description
In the 11th century, the church was the property of the Abbey of Uzerche, to which Emma de Ségur, wife of Gui Ier de Limoges, had given it. It was then erected as a treatment, linked to Uzerches in 1761. The church had a Latin cross plan. Among the old elements, there remains only the bedside of the 12th century and the southern lateral chapel of the 15th century. The rest of the building, including the bell tower, date of the modern period. The bedside has kept its ancient appearance, although the features and archivolts seem to have been modified on the north side. The floor of the bell tower-porch is made of a mosaic of pebbles forming a geometric pattern.
