[NB: the church dates from the transitional period between the late-12th century and the early-13th; it was much damaged in the sacking of Sauveterre by Charles V of Spain, in the religious wars of the 16th century and during the French Revolution; restoration sponsored by Prosper Mérimée in the mid-19th century; we have no information on its medieval font]
