Gothic church from the 14th and 15th centuries. The 15th century tabernacle and the silver treasure in the crypt of the sacristy are worth seeing, as well as the imposing golden chandelier hanging from the vaults. If you look carefully, you will find a hat, the signature of the anonymous donor who gave this piece to the parish. The floor has been redone, as it is said that it had become uneven because of all the tombstones that had sunk on one side and risen on the other over the years!

Trés riche
Intérieur un peu froid, belles proportions, retable triptyque remarquable mais surtout de magnifiques ex-voto marins du XVIIIe siècle (voir photo). Autre curiosité, rarissime dans un sanctuaire chrétien et plus encore lorsqu'il est protestant : un mur à prières et à voeux, inspiré du Wailing wall de Jérusalem (voir photo). Les dévots y insèrent dans les orifices prévus pour cet effet, leur rouleaux de supplications. Une notice précise que ceux-ci sont détruits chaque vendredi sans être lu par le personnel du sanctuaire .
