Romanesque building from the 11th century, built by the Templars of the Order of the Knights of Malta
In the 14th century, the church passed into the hands of the Hospitallers of Saint John of Jerusalem. The plan of this church is reminiscent of some oratories from the Carolingian period. It was restored in the 20th century
Its dimensions are 16 m long, 6.40 m wide and 12.80 m high. The rectangular nave opens directly onto a magnificent triumphal arch that gives access to a narrow, vaulted sanctuary, ending in an ovoid apse.
The floor is covered with large slabs arranged in a cross. To the south, a side chapel was added, with slabs in the shape of a flower.
The bell tower is built over the arch of the sanctuary and is shaped like a pinnacle. On the outside, a fragment of the cornice is decorated with modillions with crude heads or geometric figures.
