The church was built for the priory, founded by monks of the Benedictian Abbey Sauve-Majeure in 1115, but from this early church only few parts survived. The church got a gothic vault during the late 13th century, butresses were added, it got enlarged and altered a couple of times, especially when it got fortified during the Wars of Religions. The eastern apse is still Romanesque - and so are the most of the corbels seen here. Here is a group of men. Are the all nude? They seem to pose and dance in a jungle.
