De beoordeling van de Michelin Gids
Slender spires and a curved roof add to the charm of this church (1779). The ornate interior, decorated between 1794 and 1798 by Jean Baillairgé and his son Florent, features works by Médard and Jean-Julien Bourgault. The main altar tabernacle (1740) is attributed to Pierre-Noël Levasseur. The barrel vaulting is composed of small coffers embellished with 4 300 carved flowers. In 1987, seventeen local wood carvers pooled their skills to create a magnificent nativity scene (crèche de Noël).
