The Saint-Rémy church is a homogeneous neoclassical building built at the very beginning of the 18th century, as evidenced by the date of 1701 inscribed above the door of the sacristy. It is an elongated plan building. The nave with three naves of five bays is preceded by a tower-porch crowned by an imperial zinc roof. It is accosted at its base by two secondary chapels. The three vessels of the nave are covered by a single roof. The single-bay choir ends with a flat chevet against which the sacristy with its lean-to roof in mechanical tile is leaned.
