The church, mentioned in 1024, the church was owned by the Abbey of Saint Wandrille until the Revolution. The baptismal collections are dated from this period. The Romanesque bell tower dating from the 12th century, originally located between the chancel and the nave, was dismantled and then reassembled to its present location between 1822 and 1825. Inside we can admire a statue of the virgin in stone of the sixteenth century classified in the inventory of the heritage, carved funerary stones, religious furniture, paintings and statues that are inscribed in the departmental inventory.
But what we are most proud of is the seigneurial chapel that was built between 1632 and 1635 against the north wall of the church by the DESHAMPS family of BOISHEBERT. Abbot COCHET archaeologist, recognized as one of the founders of archaeology as a scientific discipline in France, wrote in 1852 in his book «Les églises de l'arrondissement d'Yvetot»:But the marvel of this church is the chapel of the Blessed Virgin, built on the northern side of the choir. We are not afraid to say that, all withered, all withered, all mutilated that it is, it remains no less, for a true connoisseur, one of the prettiest chapels of the district of Yvetot, and a true masterpiece of the reign of Louis XIII". We can ensure that it is no longer withered, withered or mutilated. It was the subject of a restoration between 2009 and 2011, with the support of the Heritage Foundation, which restores all their splendour to the stained glass windows in grisaille representing musical angels – these are moreover classified in the heritage inventory since 1937- as well as the vault painted with motifs to the glory of Our Lady and the altarpiece.
