Classified historical heritage, the church and priory date back to 12th century. Guided visits on booking. Open daily.

The church, which was partly destroyed by the Wars of Religion, retains its Romanesque walls, the nave and the north arm of the transept. The priory to the north of the church has preserved parts of its original cloister, including 2 arcades running parallel to the church. 4 16th-century arcades illuminate the oak and chestnut gallery from which the convent rooms opened. The church's Romanesque façade features a portal adorned with acanthus-leaf capitals. The comb bell tower houses 2 bells, one of which dates from the 16th century.
Inside, the stained glass windows are original, as is the north transept. The chapel dedicated to Saint-Antoine is in the flamboyant Gothic style.
