Thanks to many openings natural light gets into the church and you can admire the simply decorated pillar.

The chorus is vaulted, but you can see the peculiarity of the beams.

The simple decoration insiede the church consists of statues, low relieves and crosses.

In the year 1144 Frederic the first, count of Ferrette, asked for this construction.

Placed under the authority of the abbey of Cluny during the middle-age, it welcomed around 30 sisters in the ancient convent once situated by the actual neo-roman church tower (1909).

At the entrance of the choir it gave the burial places of the past counts.

After the English and Armagnac incursions in the 14^th and 15^th century, the church should be reconstructed. She’s today like in 1977.
