Former priory linked to Saint-Amand-de-Boixe, given to the abbey by Guillaume IV, count of Angoulême, before 1030. A campaign of works is attested in the 17th century and restorations in the 19th. The building has retained traces of its original 11th century architecture: drop walls of the nave crisscrossed with arches, intended to receive a light structure. The nave is under frame after having received a ceiling. Around 1120, the building increased with a bay under a bell tower, vaulted with a dome on horns carried by pillars with a cruciform core, flanked by columns with ball capitals and an apse. A north transept arm and its oriented apse, correspond to a third campaign of work (late 12th century?). The church underwent some transformations at the time of the Hundred Years' Wars: raising of the nave above the cornice and use of the bell tower (murderer with viewfinder).
