À propos
Notre-Dame de l'Assomption church once stood above the village. It was rebuilt on its present site from 1841 until the following year, as indicated by two commemorative stones on the western portal, dated 1842. Its north-south orientation stems from this new location between the houses. The building is made of sandstone and has an elongated plan. It comprises a three-vessel nave with five panelled bays (the columns are made of wood). The nave, covered by a single roof, is preceded by a tower-porch crowned by a polygonal slate spire. The single-bay choir is covered by a barrel vault ending in a flat chevet.
