This Romanesque church was part of a priory belonging to the Abbey of Mozac, not far from Riom.
Built on the site of a first monastery of the 7th century, this Romanesque church was part of a priory depending on the abbey of Mozac, not far from Riom. The crypt dates from the 10th century, the nave and the fortifications from the 12th century, and the machicolation bell tower from 1830. Its originality lies in its fortified architecture which contrasts with the interior. Sculpted in the warm colors of arkose, its capitals are decorated mainly with plant motifs and stylized leaves. The two roses, at the level of the flat chevet and the transept, are of Gothic style.
