Description
Small place of worship, used for an annual pilgrimage and only open on this occasion. It is built in granite and its shape is that of a Latin cross, including a nave and a transept, with a square bedside and a small openwork bell tower. The bell tower is a granite belfry with mullions on each of its sides, surmounted by a slender octagonal arrow, decorated with Gothic hooks. In 1929, the transept sold and was immediately restored. Near the church, there is a fountain surrounded by granite with a stone bench of the same material. The fountain has a square shape. The perimeter is decorated with a triangular pediment with a niche without statue.
