Description:
This lovely late 11th-century Romanesque chapel, listed on the Inventaire Supplémentaire des Monuments Historiques, is the village's former parish church.
Built of tufa stone, it comprises a 3-bay nave, 1 side aisle and a semi-circular apse with a cul-de-four vault.
The entrance door is undoubtedly the chapel's most interesting feature. Next to it is a second door, possibly the chapel's original entrance. There's also an attractive bell-wall rising above the triumphal arch.
Today, the chapel hosts a number of classical music concerts.
