The first stone of this church was laid in 1009, during the reign of Robert II the Pious. It stands amidst vineyards, on a knoll overlooking the town and the Seine valley. Its slender, eight-sided spire was rebuilt in the 15th century, after the Hundred Years' War.

Inscribed on the Supplementary Inventory of Historic Monuments in 1933.
