The large building is built on the tray(plateau) of Perrochères, peak of the city, from 1879 till 1884\. His(Her,Its) dimensions(size) are impressive 60m long on 30m. But, the most interesting in this church stays historiés stained-glass windows which mix(involve) stages(scenes) of Gospel, life of the saints and local history(story). So, we find in particular in choruses(choirs):
* the stained-glass window of Pétronille de Chemillé, abbess of Fontevraud,
* both stained-glass windows of the Saint Larme, Then, were placed in the nave in 1934, 2 other stained-glass windows of more modern invoice(making) calling back(reminding) the consecration of the church in 1884 and the hypothetical visit of the pope Urbain II in 1096\. The organ dates the beginning of the XXth century and at origin was planned(provided for) for a private room of Reims. After several places, sleeping in premises(places), it was acquired(bought back) by the parish. In 1993, the organ was restored.
