This church has been under restoration since 2014\. Among the many centers of interest, the funeral chapel of La Palud, lords of Bouligneux, founded in 1406 by Pierre de La Palud. It contains a very beautiful polychrome altarpiece/calvary (XV°S), historiated culots (XV°S.) representing the tetramorph, a funerary liter, etc. In the choir, restored in 2019, there are outstanding monumental murals (XII°/XIII°S.). On the three faces of the square choir were represented on three registers: a draped, the procession of the 12 apostles, the tetramorph (symbols of the 4 evangelists) and a Christ in majesty.
