Placed under the name of St-Marcel, the pretty church dates from the Xlle century then raised in the XVIIe century.
A beautiful baroque walnut furniture including the stalls, the chasublier, the former high altar of the Charity of Sisteron. The pulpit is still in place and has a staircase decorated with decorative garlands.
The mural fresco at the bottom of the apse dates from the seventeenth century and represents St-Antoine and his pig at the edge of a river. The painting imitates the tapestry because the funds being smaller it came back cheaper.
Finally, three contemporary works decorate the walls: the Way of the Cross sculpted by Frédérique Maillart, the painting of Zana Chancko on the west wall and the stained glass window offered by Mrs. E. Manière.
