Things to see and do

Built originally in the late thirteenth century, the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption was completely destroyed by the Huguenots in the sixteenth century to rise from the ashes in the seventeenth. Many times altered over the centuries, it reveals such a steeple and porch added under Louis XV and a barrel vault resting on eight columns of the nineteenth century.

Walking through the town, you can also explore the old fully restored wash or cultural and sports center Léo Lagrange today classified heritage of the twentieth century.
