Built in the 16th century, the church stands within the cemetery enclosure. Despite successive restorations, it has been able to retain most of its original structure: a bell tower-porch opening onto a central nave with four bays flanked by two side aisles lit by stained-glass windows; one of these aisles is closed at its apse by a stained glass window depicting the crucifixion, the other by an altar dedicated to Saint-Antoine and topped by the statue of the saint.
The choir with a flat apse and the entire church are ribbed vaulted. The Baroque high altarpiecewhich occupies the apse of the choir is topped by an imposing stepped tabernacle which extends almost to the top of the altarpiece from which it partially conceals the decoration of clouds, clouds and cherubs’ heads. Behind the upper part of the tabernacle itself surmounted by a Resurrection Christ, two angels lift the sides of a heavy theater curtain revealing Heaven symbolized by clouds, cherub heads and the dove of the Holy Spirit in the bright rays of the Eternal Father. Only two colors for this set as well as for the preaching pulpit and the side altar: dark brown for the backgrounds and gold for the statues, sculptures and decorations.
