A listed historic monument, the church has a portal identical to that of Saint-Amans-du-Ram (Vezins-de-Lévézou). The choir was built in 1440, with a square, cross-vaulted chevet. A chapel contains a Gallo-Roman sarcophagus with sculpted walls, depicting a blacksmith's workshop. Stylistically, it cannot be dated before the 4th century.
The church was donated in 1123 by Begon de Creissels to his brothers at the monastery of Nobiliacum (St Léons). A château built after 1592 by Antoine d'Hébles for the Julien de Pégayrolles family, then for the Micheau family. During the French Revolution, it was used as a house of confinement.
