Evoked in written sources from the 9th century under the mention of a chapel, the building is a Clunisian priory in the Middle Ages. The building suffered from the Hundred Years War and the Wars of Religions, before being rebuilt under Louis XIII and becoming a parish church. It features paintings and stained glass windows from this period, a 17th-century portal and bell tower, and a crypt. The church and parish houses a monastic community.
