The church, dedicated to Saint Austremoine (aka Stremonius), who preached the Bible and Christianised the Auvergne in the very early days, lays in the midst of vineyards (AOC Marcillac).
It still has a Romanesque transept and two side chapels (11th/12th century), nave, apse and bell tower were rebuilt in Gothic style in the 14th and 15th century.
Near the portal stands this contemporary cross, that tells some strange stories of the local history.

I had information about frescoes, Romanesque capitals and a 12th century crucifix, but the church was locked.
