The church of Saint-André, of Romano-Lombard style, was built in the XVth century, restored in 2006, marks the center of the village.

Description

You will enter the church through a porch above which you can admire a sundial. The interior consists of a long nave with 4 bays, ending in a choir with a polygonal chevet but also a side aisle flanking the nave on the left. A tribune, that of the Confraternity of the Penitents, houses the objects of procession: crosses, lantern, sticks.
The polychrome wooden statues on the side altars are of beautiful craftsmanship.

Don’t forget that this church is a survivor! Indeed, during the night of October 8 to 9, 1927, a fire broke out and spread throughout the village. Of the 87 houses in the village, 80 are destroyed. Only 3 houses will remain standing, the school and the church, saved by the inhabitants.
