After the Edict of Fontainebleau in 1685 it was demolished and the parish had no church for almost a century. In 1781 the new church was built, the architecture of which differs in certain points from that of other churches in the region. The church in Castetner is a low stone building with a roof with a slight slope. The bell gable is covered with a canopy. The church's tabernacle dates from the 17th century and is registered as a national treasure. The special thing about it is its double opening.
