Church begun in the 13th century, which the chorus(choir), the lateral halls as well as the tower date the 15th century. The nave keeps(preserves) its primitive(initial) arrangement(disposal). The southern hall is wallpapered inside adorned niches. The north hall is divided by two twin arcades pressed on a pillar which supports a stoup and that crowns a canopy. The tympanum of the big(great) arcade is sculpted of badges and the gâble adorned with crossettes. The south and north halls are topped with an accessible(approachable) room(chamber) by a lateral staircase. The church keeps(preserves) the most old(former) sand pits sculpted by Brittany (1430)
