History

Founded in the 11th century, this church was rebuilt in the 12th century following a fire. Restoration continued in the 18th century before it was suppressed by Napoleon in 1810. It was then used as a warehouse for wood and coal. At the end of the 19th century, the church underwent extensive restoration and reopened as an oratory for the Educational Institute of the Cavanis.
