Church Notes: 12thC church; much modified since -- listed in Mérimée [ref.: PA00103932]: "L'église dépendait du prieuré du Rozier et date en grande partie du 12e siècle (nef, sauf dernière travée ouest ; choeur avec absidioles latérales formant transept). La travée ouest de la nef fut ajoutée vers le 13e-14e siècle. La façade fut sans doute reprise à la fin du 15e siècle ou au début du 16e. Au 17e siècle, des collatéraux furent ajoutés, d'abord au nord puis au sud. Le clocher fut reconstruit à une époque récente, sans doute après destruction du précédent clocher en 1793. L'église est accolée au logis du prieur."

The entry for this church in Norbert Breton's Premier Millénaire [http://millenaire1.free.fr/408_9_101_st_pierre_tripiers.html] [accessed 12 September 2022] shows an old altar table [pre-Romanesque?] being supported on a tub-shaped object that resembles a font; furthemore, the object has evidence of anchorings around the upper rim, reinforcing the idea that it may be the medieval font ob this church. No cover present.
