description

The church dedicated to the Apostle Peter was probably built in the first half of the 12th century and received its final form in the 13th century. The right of patronage belonged to the Beaumont-le-Roger priory, which was subordinate to the Benedictine Abbey of Le Bec .

In 1824 St-Pierre was completely rebuilt. The apse adjoining the Romanesque choir tower was converted into a sacristy, and the nave and roof were completely redesigned. The core of the medieval west facade of the church has been preserved.
