Eglise Nativité de Notre-Dame

Built in the 13th century, it has been listed in the inventory of historical monuments since 1926.

We are struck by the polychromy of the materials that compose it and the massive character of its buttresses. During work in 1970, Gallo-Roman remains were collected:
> a sarcophagus, carved from a block of granite, was placed upright under the large stained-glass window.
A labrum, used for ablutions at the entrance of Roman temples, was placed near the entrance. After serving as a baptismal font, it is possible that it was later used as a drinking trough…

The interior, Romanesque at its core with Gothic additions in the 15th century, is very sober, which contrasts with the magnificent Louis XIII altarpiece.
