Description

In the 11th century, the church was part of the Noyers abbey which had received it in donation. It was modified in the 12th century and rebuilt entirely in the 18th century, except for the facade. There remains a part of the original facade of the 12th century, including a semicircular arc door surrounded by an archivolt decorated with a row of diamond -shaped patterns. The church consists of a nave, a bell tower and a rectangular apse. Brick vaults were added at the end of the 19th century.
