Languedoc -style church, with a single nave and side chapels, built in the 16th century. The apse, which has seven sides, is decorated with frescoes made by Gabriel Béringuier. The paintings of the nave, created by Céroni, an Italian expert in religious decoration, illustrate the twelve apostles. The bell tower, which had fallen, was rebuilt in 1925.
