Century and Period: 12th century, Romanesque
Church Notes: original church may have been a Merovingian sanctuary built on the site of a Roman castrum -- 12thC church listed in Mérimée [ref.: PA00099962] : "Edifice du 12e siècle avec nef voûtée en plein cintre et choeur polygonal orné d'arcatures à colonnettes aux chapiteaux sculptés. Le chevet présente trois pans contrepoussés par des contreforts massifs. La couverture est caractéristique et couverte en ardoises de Travassac. Le portail sud semble remonter à la même époque. La voûte de la nef et le clocher pignon sont du 18e siècle."
[NB: we have no information on the baptismal font of the 12th-century church here]. There are two stoups of interest in this church; the one on the inside of the south entranceway is a crude quadrangular block with a round opening, resembling an urn; the other, standing against the wall of the nave, consists of a capital-shaped basin, octagonal at the top, round at the base, decorated with foliage motifs all around, raised on a round slender pedestal covered in a fluted pattern; moulded lower base; late date. A 17th-century metal portable holy-water reservoir that disappeared ca. 1980 from this church is listed in Palissy [ref.: PM19001115]: " réserve à eau baptismale [...] de forme circulaire, à couvercle, est en cuivre rouge. La cuve n'a pas d'anses [...] 17e siècle [...] Disparition depuis 20 ans, confirmée par le curé en 2003."
