Description
The church has a shape of a Latin cross and was built between the end of the 15th century and the 16th century. A lower part of the church was modified in the 17th century, with the reconstruction of the front massif between 1644 and 1649. Work was also carried out on the upper part of the Tower in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. The frame of the belfry was redone in 1879, and the arrow was renovated in 1928. The sculpted sand pits of the collaterals and the arms of the transept present scenes of animals, bust characters and plant patterns. There is the direct influence of the carpenter Le Loergan, active in the 15th century.
