Summary

Description
Français : L'église a sans doute été fondée à la fin du 12e siècle, puis transformée à la fin du 15e ou au début du 16e siècle. Un clocher-porche sert de façade à la nef terminée par deux travées voûtées, constituant le choeur. La nef est flanquée, au nord, d'un bas-côté. Elle est couverte d'une charpente en forme de voûte, plafonnée, avec cinq tirants et poinçons chanfreinés apparents. Elle communique avec le bas-côté au moyen de trois arcades en ogive, soutenues par deux piliers, l'un rond, l'autre octogonal, sur lesquels viennent pénétrer les moulures des arcs très caractéristiques du 15e siècle. A l'extrémité de la nef, les deux travées de choeur voûtées sur croisée d'ogives peuvent être datées du 13e siècle. Le clocher est de plan carré, flanqué de contreforts, ceux de l'ouest encadrant un portail à arc surbaissé, à moulures, flanqué de deux pinacles et surmonté autrefois de contrecourbes qui sont tombées. La clef est formée par un buste d'angelot tenant un écu. A la partie supérieure du clocher s'ouvrent, sur chaque face, deux baies géminées avec abats-sons. Du côté est, subsistent les restes de l'ancienne entrée de la nef du 13e siècle. C'est un portail formé de quatre colonnettes soutenant les rouleaux d'arcs brisés encadrant un tympan, actuellement soulagé par un arc surbaissé visiblement ajouté pour élargir le portail. Derrière ce portail se trouve l'escalier à noyau central, montant jusqu'à la hauteur des entraits, qui permet d'accéder au beffroi. (source : Mérimée)
English: The church was probably founded at the end of the 12th century, then transformed in the late 15th or early 16th century. A bell-tower serves as a facade to the nave ending with two vaulted bays, constituting the choir. The nave is flanked on the north by a side-aisle. It is covered with a roof structure, capped, with five tie rods and visible chamfered punches. It communicates with the aisle by means of three arched arches, supported by two pillars, one round, the other octagonal, on which come to penetrate the moldings of the very characteristic arches of the 15th century. At the end of the nave, the two choir vaulted vaulted spans can be dated to the 13th century. The bell tower is square, flanked by buttresses, those of the west flanking a low-arch archway, molded, flanked by two pinnacles and formerly surmounted by fallen curvatures. The key is formed by a bust of a cherub holding a shield. At the upper part of the bell tower, on each side, two geminated bays with louvers open. On the east side, remain the remains of the old entrance to the nave of the 13th century. It is a portal formed of four columns supporting the rolls of broken arches surrounding a tympanum, currently relieved by a lowered bow visibly added to expand the portal. Behind this portal is the central staircase, up to the height of the links, which provides access to the belfry. (source: Mérimée)
