Church Notes: church listed in Mérimée [ref.: PA00083030]: "12e siècle [...] L'église est l'un des types les plus complets et les mieux conservés d'architecture romane périgourdine. De forme en croix latine, elle se termine par un chevet carré." -- There may have been an earlier mid-9th century church here destroyed by the Normans
The dark-marble font in this church is relatively modern compared to the church itself; it consists of a shallow round basin raised on a very slender round pedestal base, and a mouldd round-to-square lower base; the stem is carved with torsade, and the capital that tops it is decorated as well; the lower base has several roll mouldings. The metal [copper?] cover is old, shaped like a stretched dome; the finial appears to be damaged.
