Légèreté et élégance de cette église qui abrite une oeuvre exceptionnelle. The church of Saint-Jean Baptiste, a remarkable building listed as a Historic Monument, was built in the 12th century by the local inhabitants to serve the community that had grown up under the protection of the castle. From the outset, it belonged to the Abbey of Saint-Antonin, of which it was one of the many priories. As it stands today, it belongs to the 14th century as a whole.
