Anecdote

In the commune, plague epidemics led to the church being placed under the protection of Saint Roch. A chapel was built there from March 1514 to October 1518, then the choir was built between 1550 and 1555 on land donated in 1535, and the side chapels were rebuilt in the 17th century. It has a porch tower and a single-aisle nave ending in a semicircular apse, and many regional pilgrimages are held there.
